More about KHPG

The current situation

The future of much of our work is currently in danger due to lack of resources. At a time of mounting rights violations in occupied Crimea and Donbas and with other infringements inevitable because of the pandemic and resulting economic crisis, we believe it is vital that we continue our work in full, but without funding, will be forced to significantly reduce our activities. With Russia systematically blocking information and freedom of speech in occupied Crimea, as well as in the areas of Donbas under its effective control, we are especially concerned to continue providing up-to-date information about violations in occupied parts of Ukraine, including the ever-mounting number of political prisoners.

Since we must remain freely available, and fully independent, we are reaching out to all who share our commitment to human rights and building a strong democratic and law-based country on all of Ukraine’s territory
