We’ve been documenting Russia’s international crimes in Ukraine since 2017, gathering the data in our own dedicated database. Our reports are being sent to the ICC Office of the Prosecutor and to other institutions.
We provide legal, psychological, and humanitarian assistance to those who’ve lost their loved ones, whose homes were destroyed by a missile, and those who were tortured by Russian soldiers. People come to our offices with these, and many other issues, every day.
Each year the lawyers of KHPG lead 230-240 cases in Ukrainian courts.
We win almost all of them.
Our NGO has won more than 150 cases in the ECHR, and none were lost! This work not only helps people get justice, but gradually changes Ukraine for the better.
We write about human rights violations, including those resulting from Russia’s invasion and annexation of Crimea. We provide news and analytical reports in both Ukrainian and English. Our Voices of War project gathered hundreds of personal stories of Ukrainians in articles, videos, and books.
KHPG carries out regular monitoring of penitentiary institutions, writes about the violations found and provides legal assistance to prisoners.
Kharkiv Human Rights Protection Group runs several online projects, including: the Tribunal for Putin website (in 7 languages), an online human rights library, and an online museum of the dissident movement in Ukraine.
The Police, Security Service, anti-contribution investigators and other agencies have a tendency to abuse their authority if not kept under scrutiny. We ensure such monitoring through our website, as well as through the courts.
Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine changed our work dramatically, becoming the number one reason for the suffering of Ukrainians. Our mission is to document as many facts as possible for future trials of war criminals and to help those suffering from the storm of war each day whose stories we publish regularly. Sometimes even a simple conversation with our lawyer and psychologist can bring hope to a person.

Project title:
“Comprehensive assistance (legal, psychological, humanitarian, medical) to civilians in Ukraine who have suffered from crimes committed by the Russian military”.
Our project aims to provide comprehensive support to civilians who have suffered losses and suffering as a result of hostilities. We combine the efforts of specialists from various fields to provide the most effective legal, psychological, humanitarian and medical assistance to people who need it most.
Duration:
The project is open-ended and will last at least until the end of the war, as well as for another year after it ends. This will allow us to support the victims even when the acute phase of the conflict is over, but the consequences are still felt.
Donation conditions:
