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 lost their loved ones, whose homes were destroyed by a missile, and who were tortured by the 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 won more than 150 cases in the ECHR, and none was lost! This work not only helps an individual get satisfaction from an injustice 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 texts, videos, and books.
KHPG carries out regular monitoring of penitentiary institutions, write about the violations found and provide legal assistance to prisoners
The Tribunal for Putin website in seven languages, an online human rights library, an online museum of the dissident movement, and other web projects are run by the Kharkiv Human Rights Protection Group.
The Police, Security Service, anti-contribution investigators and other bodies 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 all-out invasion of Ukraine changed our work dramatically, becoming the No. 1 reason for suffering for the Ukrainians. Our mission is to document as many facts as possible for future trials of war criminals and to help the ones 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.
