Hepatica's Past Projects

Youth Forum 2024.

For the third consecutive year, Ukraine joined the global celebration of International Youth Day with its flagship event, the Youth Forum. This vibrant gathering brought together active youth from across Ukraine, representatives of Ukrainian and international youth organizations, experts, and key stakeholders in youth policy.

The Youth Forum served as a permanent platform for open dialogue between young people, authorities, and youth policy stakeholders. Its mission was to collaboratively develop proposals for the State Target Social Programme "Youth of Ukraine 2026–2030" and the "Strategy for Encouraging Young People to Return to Ukraine."

Held over three days in the Kyiv region and the city of Kyiv, the Forum welcomed high-ranking state officials, government representatives, international partners, and distinguished guests. The first two days were dedicated to communication, discussion, and crafting proposals. The highlight was the central event, where participants presented their proposals to top state leaders and engaged in direct dialogue with key decision-makers.

The Forum was more than an event—it was a movement to amplify young voices and shape Ukraine’s future. Hepatica considers this project a vital initiative for Ukraine’s future and is proud to be a committed partner in its success.
