Our projects
Scouts of Ukraine implement numerous initiatives aimed at supporting society during these challenging times. We carry out projects in social, humanitarian, and educational fields, helping children, youth, and communities adapt to new challenges. Through collaboration with partners, we provide assistance, develop Scout groups, and create a safe space for growth and self-realisation.
"I am among my own" project
Implemented in partnership with ALPS Resilience, the project aimed to facilitate the reintegration and adaptation of children who returned to their communities or were internally displaced as a result of the war in Ukraine. The Scouts of Ukraine team trained more than 100 adult leaders from Zhytomyr, Chernihiv, Sumy and Kyiv regions to open new Scout groups in schools, houses of creativity and youth centres for more than 750 children and provided them with activity materials. The project also included interactive game programmes, and more than 4,500 children were able to immerse themselves in the atmosphere of childhood, play and get to know Scouting in an unusual way, which was aimed at strengthening their psychological resilience and helping them adapt to new conditions.
"Emergency Response" project
Within the framework of the Emergency Response project, the Scouts of Ukraine were involved in providing emergency assistance in the first months of the war, coordinating efforts at the local and international levels. In the first few months of the war, the World Organization of the Scout Movement (WOSM) raised more than $700,000 to help Ukraine. Thanks to the fundraising efforts of our partners and friends in Scouting, we have provided assistance to more than 100,000 Ukrainians both in Ukraine and abroad.
"The UAct" project
Implemented in cooperation with the United Nations Children's Fund, UNICEF, the project was aimed at helping children and their families who were forced to leave their homes. Project activities included psychological support, educational programmes, and assistance with basic needs, enabling children to continue their education and receive support in the new environment. The children were able to join Scout groups in their new places of residence, thus having the opportunity to make new friends and socialise more easily in unfamiliar environments.
‘Scouts for Ukraine’ project
This project took place at the very beginning of the war in 2014 and focused on providing assistance to internally displaced persons from Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts, as well as the Autonomous Republic of Crimea. As part of the project, the Scouts provided IDP families with food, medicines, and clothing, and supported them in finding temporary housing. The children of these families were able to join Scout groups in their new places of residence and make new friends.
Every project implemented by the Scouts of Ukraine during the war had one goal: to make life easier for those affected by the war and provide them with the necessary support.
