Since the start of the full-scale war, Russians have launched six thousand missiles and more than three thousand drones. The absolute majority targeted civilians, disrupting thousands of Ukrainian lives.

We are the first media in Ukraine in the format of solution journalism. What does it mean? We talk not only about problems but also about how they can be solved at the national, community, or personal level. 

We collect stories, explaining how and why they work or fail, what the people implementing them encountered, the results, and how the solution can be scaled.

We hope that this will help our readers become agents of change in their lives, Ukraine, and the world.

We create articles that should be useful to you, our readers.
