INTERNATIONAL RENAISSANCE FOUNDATION Annual Report 2011
THE INTERNATIONAL RENAISSANCE FOUNDATION EXPRESSES SINCERE GRATITUDE TO ALL PARTNERS WHO PROVIDE FINANCIAL AND ORGANIZATIONAL SUPPORT IN BUILDING AN OPEN DEMOCRATIC SOCIETY IN UKRAINE.
ВСТУП
The International Renaissance Foundation continues to issue open reports about its work in 2011 to implement the Foundation’s mission of promoting an open and democratic society in Ukraine. We have provided grants and expert support to various projects proposed by NGOs, think tanks, schools, culture clubs, libraries, charity foundations, and so on. Central and local government agencies have joined in a number of important initiatives. In 2011, the Foundation provided grants for about UAH 62,000,000 that it had received from the Open Society Institute (Open Society Foundations, New York, since last year) and its founder George Soros. The IRF is about to end its Anti-crisis Humanitarian Program that we started in 2009 on recommendation of the founder. In 2011 alone, the program supported the Ukrainians who had most suffered from the financial crisis by giving out grants in the amount of over UAH 10,000,000. Last year was difficult for the Foundation and its mission. The government had taken momentous efforts to consolidate power and, at the same time, attack

democratic freedoms, however it did not yield any tangible results in terms of the badly needed and highly publicized reforms. The low level of public confidence in the government, and therefore reforms, did not considerably increase public confidence in the opposition. The situation with democracy and the rule of law did not improve compared to 2010, and many European and international institutions noted negative developments in the area. All of those factors did not allow Ukraine to sign the Association Agreement with the EU that was so important for domestic transformations and European integration ambitions of Ukraine. The ruling administration has tried to improve the situation by drafting and adopting some overdue legislation in the areas of access to public information, justice, housing and others. Civic councils have stepped up their activities to provide advice to government agencies of various levels, but this has not solved the systemic problem of real public engagement in reform policies. Similarly, individual representatives of the civil society have been invited to sit on advisory committees and assemblies under the President of Ukraine, but it does not amount to full-fledged participation of NGOs and independent think tanks in decision-making on all government levels and public control of its implementation. Broad groups of citizens who are aware of their rights see with increasing clarity that the country needs renovation, and effective democracy should replace the authoritarian and populist rule. New civic initiatives emerge and compliment the existing ones to achieve the general goal of establishing political and executive administration that would be fair, non-corrupt, responsible, and accountable to the society at every level. Popular movements of students, entrepreneurs, Chernobyl veterans and others force the government to give heed to their demands more effectively than the traditional political parties. Non-partisan civic initiatives and movements also use the social networks with much greater effect. This year’s parliamentary election campaign will be the litmus test for Ukraine’s democracy as only free and fair election, whatever the outcome, can give this country a chance to embark on the European way of development. This objective is a consolidating factor for many civil society organizations. This is the social and political background for the Foundation’s continuing efforts to solve the challenges mentioned above as well as other problems described in the report.

Promoting demand for more transparency and accountability of public authorities
PUBLIC CONTROL OF THE GOVERNMENT On 20 September, 2011, Ukraine officially declared its intention to join the international Open Government Partnership initiative that had been launched by the U.S. and Brazilian presidents and currently included fifty nations around the world. Governments of the member states undertake specific obligations to help promote transparent public governance, use of new technologies to improve quality of governance, engagement of the public in public governance processes, as well as anti-corruption efforts. The Foundation has been providing support to the TORO Creative Union and other non-governmental organizations in the implementation of that initiative in Ukraine, primarily at the central government level. The public’s draft Action Plan for the initiative implementation in Ukraine has been developed, and its provisions were later integrated into the official Action Plan for Ukraine. The Foundation provides support to non-governmental organizations in monitoring government spending. In 2011, assistance was provided to eight civil society initiatives for the monitoring of public procurement in different regions of Ukraine.

CIVIL SOCIETY IMPACT ENHANCEMENT
With the assistance of the Foundation, the Political Studies and Analysis Center has monitored tender purchases for education institutions in Rivne, Kherson and Chernihiv oblasts. The findings of the monitoring indicate that the cost of foodstuffs for education institutions often exceeds the average market prices and, sometimes, the foods purchased for children are of low quality. The experts of Krona Charitable Foundation project have detected violations by the Ministry of Health of procurement procedures for the purchase of medicines for child cancer patients. It was established that tendering committees often did not provide adequate information about the tender procedures, which encouraged abuse and the purchase of medicines at artificially inflated prices.

SUPPORT TO THINK TANKS In 2011, the Foundation provided its assistance to capacity building of regional non-governmental organizations for policy analysis. Five organizations in different regions of Ukraine, namely Donetsk, Mykolaiv, Odessa, Kharkiv, and Storozhynets, Chernivtsi Oblast, studied and suggested solutions to certain complex issues of community development such as housing and utilities, community self-organization, and civic engagement in health protection policy planning. The program encouraged experts of non-governmental
10
CIVIL SOCIETY IMPACT ENHANCEMENT
organizations to participate in an expert group to show the importance of cooperation affecting decision-making and achieving the desired results. In the town of Storozhynets, Chernivtsi Oblast, the transition to individual gas or electric heating systems has brought about a serious problem of heating lower-income households. The project developed a memo suggesting an optimal solution to the problem based on which the executive committee of Storozhynets Town Council adopted a decision to evaluate living conditions and promote energy efficiency in apartment buildings. The project expert group was given the status of advisory board for Storozhynets District Administration. Government agencies in the Donetsk oblast are carrying out an experiment in restructuring health institutions, which includes establishing hospital districts. The Donetsk Oblast branch of the Committee of Voters of Ukraine has studied the legal framework for the experiment to see whether it allows participation of the civil society organizations. It distributed the expert group’s statement on the risks of violation of labor rights during the experiment implementation, and sent an open letter to the head of the Chief Health Department of Donetsk Oblast Administration on inadequate public engagement in the experiment. The organization has reached an agreement with Donetsk Oblast Council on establishing a joint working group for the development of new mechanisms for public participation in health reform, and another agreement with the Chief Health Department on announcing the regional criteria for the establishment of hospital districts.
In Kharkiv, local experts focused their efforts on tackling energy poverty by improving energy efficiency policies in the oblast. Other projects focused on community self-organization issues such as improving municipal policy on community self-organization at the dormitory level in Odessa or promoting public engagement in debates and decision-making to overcome the tuberculosis epidemic in Mykolaiv Oblast.

Đ•-GOVERNANCE
The Foundation supports the development of e-governance and e-democracy in Ukraine. In 2011, we focused our efforts on improving administrative services provided by government agencies to the public. Assistance was provided in implementing projects for the establishment of administrative service centers in several cities. Centers co-funded by local governments are being established in Lutsk, Ternopil, Khmelnytskyi, and the town of Trostyanets, Sumy Oblast. In Ivano-Frankivsk, the range of administrative services has been expanded to include, among others, electronic waiting lines to apply for
12
CIVIL SOCIETY IMPACT ENHANCEMENT
admission to the city’s pre-school and secondary education institutions, and the rest of the center’s mechanisms and procedures are being improved. A joint competency center (E-governance Community Center) will be established in partnership with the program at the administrative service center in Vinnytsya, the E-governance Workshop website will be developed, and a training course called E-governance School has been drafted. Experts, government agencies, and non-governmental organizations will be developing practices, strategies and standards of electronic governance for local communities in Ukraine.
13
COMMUNITY SELF-ORGANIZATION In 2011, the Foundation provided its support to local non-governmental initiatives by running a small grants competition among non-governmental organizations, community self-organization agencies (OSN in Ukrainian), apartment building co-owners associations (OSBB) and community advocacy groups. The projects helped communities defend their rights and interests in their relations with central and local government agencies and providers of social, housing, public utility, and other services. Advocacy campaigns were run in Cherkasy, Luhansk, Rivne and Kirovohrad Oblasts as well as in the cities of Lutsk and Sevastopol. In Lutsk, assistance has been provided to nine advocacy projects aimed at tackling pressing community problems. An OSBB initiated the development of the Program for the Promotion of OSBBs activities in Lutsk for 2012-2014 providing for financial support of OSBBs which was adopted by Lutsk City Council. A department for the promotion of OSBBs, housing and utilities reform, and economic analysis was established at the City Council. Another project called for development of the city’s road transport infrastructure. Based on the project outcomes, a Concept of Bicycle Infrastructure Development was drafted and supported by all factions of the City Council and its Community Board. The City Council was advised to endorse the document.
For condominums representatives, the establishment of a resource center is a way out of the informational vacuum Valentyn Minaiev, head of OSBB in Pavlohrad
14
In 2011, support was provided to for OSBB and/or OSN resource centers operating in Zaporizhya, Luhansk, Odessa, Poltava, Dnipropetrovsk and Donetsk Oblasts. Those centers are a place where OSBBs, OSNs and advocacy groups can receive free advisory, legal, informational, institutional, methodological and other types of assistance.
CIVIL SOCIETY IMPACT ENHANCEMENT
In late 2010 – early 2011, Luhansk City Administration made an attempt to disband the existing OSNs and instead establish new ones within the districts assigned to city council members. ‘Luhansk Civic Initiative’ NGO ran an advocacy campaign to address the problem which had a positive outcome in that OSNs remained within the former boundaries. Besides, Luhansk officials were introduced to the practices of OSNs in Vinnytsya and Odessa. As a result, Luhansk City Council adopted the Municipal Program for OSN Development, and the resource center that the program had helped set up moved into the premises of the city council. The Program has supported the initiative started by Odessa-based NGO Quality of Life to promote the right of drivers to quality roads and establish permanent public monitoring of the roads. Now drivers can upload photos of bad quality road sections on the 4road.net website. They can also use standard forms to file complaints to government agencies and monitor their response.
15
INTERETHNIC TOLERANCE
We have supported the promotion of interethnic tolerance and good neighborly relations among different ethnic communities in Ukraine. Our goal is to promote intercultural dialogue between different ethnic groups and tackle ethnic stereotypes, prejudices and phobias by means of awareness-raising and educational activities among target audiences. Priority was given to regions populated by various ethnic communities such as Crimea, Odessa Oblast, Transcarpathia, and Bukovyna. Top Kaiya Bakhchysarai Center for Regional Development based in the town of Bakhchysarai, Crimea, established a School Center for Tolerance and Neighborliness at a local secondary school. Both schoolchildren and adults attended ornamental painting and decorative molding classes, developed informational materials, and created exhibition pieces with their own hands. Historians and ethnographers of Odessa Oblast have authored a publication on twelve best historic traditions of neighborly relations in the region. The essays covered some current issues of ethnic tolerance promotion in Odessa Oblast. The publication also featured the best essays submitted to the talent competition for schoolchildren and university students called Neighborhood Traditions through the Eyes of Youth, contacts of members of the Board of Representatives of Ethnic and Cultural Associations in the region, and other useful information. In addition to the book, the organization also released posters, DVDs with presentations in different languages, and produced and distributed three videos.

CIVIL SOCIETY IMPACT ENHANCEMENT
Representatives of ten ethnic groups from Crimea, Transcarpathia, Bukovyna and Odessa Oblast came together in the Bonfire for Tolerance camp. The camp was attended by fifty young Romanians, Hungarians, Poles, Russians, Armenians, Crimean Tatars, Moldovans, Greeks, and Ukrainians. In addition to training, games and sports, the camp activities included cultural presentations of each ethnicity. The Bonfire for Tolerance camp turned out to be a sort of a platform for trans-regional understanding and conflicts resolution, developing the vision of the future for different ethnicities living in Ukraine, promoting interethnic tolerance among youth, establishing intercultural dialogue between young people, and tackling stereotypes and mutual prejudices. Chernivtsi-based Ukrainian People’s House Association has initiated the development of ethnic tours based on research of cultural heritage of particular ethnicities. The tours have been developed by schoolchildren under the supervision of history teachers and in cooperation with ethnic communities. During the final phase of the project, leaflets with maps and descriptions of the tours will be published, and tolerance camps for youth will be arranged. The Ukrainian Youth Club has run a competition among schoolchildren in Chernivtsi Oblast, Odessa Oblast, and the Crimea for the best essay on ethnic features and traditions of the other regions. The competition winners will have a chance to visit the regions that they depicted in their essays submitted for the competition.
17
RESPONSIBLE ENERGY POLICY The Program has provided assistance to the projects promoting Ukraine’s accession to the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (ЕІТІ). The ЕІТІ is an independent international transparency standard that regularly publishes accurate data about the size of payments of extractive companies to governments and the income generated by them. Implementing the ЕІТІ would help create a more transparent and competitive environment and thus improve international confidence, investment climate, and energy security. As a result of lobbying by the members of the Energy Transparency Association such as the Nomos Center, Dixi Group NGO, Kyiv International Energy Club, School of Policy Analysis and others, the Ukrainian President and the Cabinet have adopted regulations aimed to speed up Ukraine’s accession to the ЕІТІ. Ukraine needs to apply the EITI transparency standards not only in the field of extraction but also in oil and gas transportation. Sevastopol-based Nomos Center in cooperation with partner organizations from Georgia, Bulgaria and Turkey has developed a number of mechanisms to promote transparency
18
CIVIL SOCIETY IMPACT ENHANCEMENT
of governance and profit distribution in the field. With the help of those mechanisms, each of the participating organizations has developed reports on transparency of hydrocarbon transportation in their countries. The final comparative analysis of the situation in the aforementioned four countries will be presented at the conference in Brussels in mid-2012. The Program has provided support to the first pilot project for transparency assessment in the coal mining sector in Ukraine. Kharkiv-based Institute for Sustainable Development has conducted a transparency study in certain coal mining companies in Donetsk, Luhansk and Lviv Oblasts. The findings indicate that coal mining, transportation and sale of coal are the least transparent among the extraction industries in Ukraine. Experts point out that despite the widely branched accountability system in Ukraine it is fairly difficult to monitor transparency of the mining sector. In view of the fact that deductions from coal mining income, namely UAH 31 billion from coal mining and UAH 24 billion from coke industry, constitute a significant share (19 percent) of government revenues, the Ukrainian public needs effective mechanisms to ensure adequate transparency of the industry. The Foundation has also provided assistance to develop an English language version of the www.UA-Energy.org website which is a good source of quality information about the energy sector of Ukraine for international audiences.

RULE OF LAW Legal Empowerment of the Poor Free Legal Aid Access to Information Fighting Discrimination Monitoring Places of Detention
Supporting civic initiatives to protect human rights and basic freedoms
LEGAL EMPOWERMENT OF THE POOR Far from being a luxury that the poor can live without, effective legal rights are a necessity for everyone Report of the UN Commission on Legal Empowerment of the Poor
Awareness of one’s rights makes people more secure and, as a consequence, better off. The poor in Ukraine today have limited access to legal tools that would allow them to protect their rights and interests independently. According to official data, almost one fourth of the population in Ukraine live below the poverty line. Poverty has many components, one of them being inaccessibility of services necessary for decent life, and inability to use even the legal tools guaranteed by law. Unawareness of the opportunities that the legal system provides means that for generations many people live in unregistered and illegitimate houses, work without any legal guarantees, and remain wary of signing contracts. As part of the Legal Empowerment of the Poor Initiative, the International Renaissance Foundation supports Community Law Centers whose activities include mediation, training volunteers on the fundamentals of legal education work, provision of pro bono representation in courts, visits to rural communities, etc.
More than 20,000 people have sought legal assistance from the 23 Community Law Centers that operate with our support.
22
Residents of a village in Kyiv Oblast have signed agreements to lease their land to a local business. For 15 months they didn’t receive any payment for use of their land and decided to turn for help to the lawyers of the Community Law Center in Bila Tserkva. The legal solution would be to go to court, but lawsuits can drag on for years and they are mentally exhausting and expensive. The lawyer helped the villagers write a collective appeal, sent the paper to the business owner and invited him to a meeting with the villagers to discuss ways to resolve the conflict amicably. As a result, a preliminary agreement was reached between the parties and now the business owner is gradually paying off his debt.
RULE OF LAW
In Khmelny tskiy, twenty law yers came together to provide free legal assistance for strategic cases and appeals. The cases given to the law yers are selected from among the applications sent to the Community Law Center. If an appeal can be considered strategic, or if failure to provide legal assistance in court could endanger a person’s life, a law yer collaborating with the Center would take up the case.
23
FREE LEGAL AID
W ith the adoption of the L aw “On Free Legal A id”in 2 011, the government made of ficial its commitment to provide access to legal assistance for those who cannot af ford it. In 2 011, with suppor t of IRF, the Ukrainian Legal A id Foundation was launched. Its mission is to ensure access to justice through legal aid and implementation of European standards of justice in Ukraine. Creating an ef fective free legal aid system across the countr y was the aim of the pilot Public Defenders O f fices suppor ted by the Foundation. During the last five years these O f fices tested mechanisms for providing free legal aid in criminal proceedings.

More than 4,000 applications requesting the help of a defense lawyer in criminal cases were received by the Offices in the four years of their work
Lawyers of the Offices in Bila Tserkva and Khmelnytskiy are involved as defenders in every case where the detained suspect and/or accused is a minor. Serhiy Medvedev, a lawyer with the Kharkiv Public Defenders Office, secured the release of Yakiv Strohan who had been tortured by the police. This high-profile case was mentioned in the annual reports of the U.S. Department of State and Amnesty International.

at all stages of proceedings. As a result, bail has become a more commonly used preventive measure than detention: in Khmelny tskiy, one in three defendants (3 4.8%) for which the investigator had requested detention was released from custody. In 25% of cases in Bila Tserk va, sentences did not involve incarceration.
The best practices of the Public Defenders Offices in 2012 will be taken into account when establishing a nationwide network of Secondary Legal Aid Centers.
25
ACCESS TO INFORMATION
The Foundation fostered the implementation of the Law “On Access to Public Information” that entered into force in 2011. The Rule of Law Program supported 13 civic initiatives in different regions of Ukraine to secure access to public information related to the formation of tariffs for utilities and housing services, use of funds from central and local government budgets, distribution of land, information on the incomes of government officials, environmental and archival information, etc. Despite the requirement that local governments should post urban master plans on their official websites, public access to the key document that outlines a city’s development plan is still classified and labeled “For Official Use Only” (FOUO). The new set of building regulations proposed by the Ministry of Regional Development, Construction, Housing, and Municipal Services does not provide access to full versions of the plans either.
Thanks to efforts of the Eastern Ukrainian Center for Civic Initiatives, the Ministry has expressed willingness to start removing the FOUO label from the master plans.
With support of the Program, the Media Law Institute has begun setting up a network of experienced lawyers and public activists that will defend the right to access to information by providing written and verbal consultation and legal support for court cases to defend citizens’ rights and ensure access to information. The Network has already more than forty activists. Information about all access to information initiatives supported by the Program is available at the specialized portal “Right to Know” (stop-xfiles-ua.org).

FIGHTING DISCRIMINATION
In 2011, with support from IRF, the Coalition to Fight Discrimination was established, bringing together more than thirty NGOs representing the main social groups that were discriminated because of gender, nationality, skin color, age, health, disabilities, etc. (w w w.antidi.org.ua). Coalition experts are drafting a comprehensive anti-discrimination law that is a precondition for Ukraine’s European integration, and in
28
RULE OF LAW
particular for implementation of the EU-Ukraine Action Plan on Visa Liberalization. Age discrimination is one of the most common forms of discrimination in Ukraine. According to a survey by Kharkiv Institute of Social Research, one in three people aged 40-59 has suffered age discrimination when applying for a job; 58% of vacancy announcements on the Internet list age restrictions. As part of its cooperation with the Ministry of Justice, the Coalition has provided recommendations to implement the Anti-discrimination Strategy in Ukraine. Coalition members devise initiatives aimed at protecting the rights of social groups discriminated on the basis of age, disabilities, gender, etc. The Coalition has provided legal assistance, including in court, to victims of discrimination in various areas. The first case against pharmacies not equipped with access ramps has gained widespread publicity in Ukraine. This unprecedented lawsuit was initiated by Dmytro Zhary, lawyer from Dnipropetrovsk. Although the law requires that all public facilities have access ramps many do not, or they have ramps that are dangerous to use for people with disabilities. Dmytro experienced this firsthand when he was unable to independently enter a pharmacy to buy medication.
In exercising my rights and lawful interests I don’t want to be dependant on other people, their moods and physical abilities Dmytro Zhary, lawyer, wheelchair user
Dmytro filed a lawsuit demanding that the pharmacy be stripped of its license. However, the court rejected his claim. Dmytro has filed an appeal and plans to defend his rights in the European Court of Human Rights if he loses the appeal.
29
MONITORING PLACES OF DETENTION Kharkiv Institute of Social Research, with support of the Foundation, has conducted the first inventory in Ukraine of the institutions where people are held in custody, imprisoned, or under care by order of a court, administrative authority or another government agency, and who can’t leave on their own will. Places of detention in Ukraine aren’t just institutions within the prison and police systems, but also facilities under the Ministry of Health, Ministry of Education and Science, Youth and Sports, Ministry of Social Policy, etc. People are detained not only in prisons or pretrial detention centers. The authors of the study also list boarding schools, psychiatric hospitals, orphanages, migrant detention centers, and even military units. There are approximately 5,500 places of detention in Ukraine where nearly one million people can be kept in custody. Many places of detention are not formally considered as such, which gives rise to abuse. There are facilities where any person can be held without legitimate reasons, and getting out is not easy because one can be put there without judicial review or a lawyer. Detainees are often denied access to medical or legal assistance, information, proper rehabilitation, adaptation and socialization programs. A person can wind up institutionalized for one’s whole life, being moved from one institution to another without a chance to return to the society. A potential solution to the problem is effective government and public oversight of the detention facilities. Publication of a list of such facilities would help speed up the development and implementation of an optimal model of public control in Ukraine and reduce the risk of abuse in detention.

EUROPEAN PROGRAM Association with the EU Eastern Partnership Europe without Barriers European Identity of Ukraine
Strengthening participation of civil society in Ukraine’s European integration
ASSOCIATION WITH THE EU
In 2011, the Foundation supported development of a consolidated position of the civil society organizations that advocated the soonest possible initialing and promulgation of the text of the Association Agreement with EU. This will allow the Ukrainian society to obtain more detailed information concerning advantages of Ukraine’s association with the European Union. We have supported public monitoring of implementation of the EU-Ukraine Association Agenda (AA) so the experts of the leading national independent think tanks could join policy analysis and development of the recommendations for Ukraine’s European integration. Conclusions of the public monitoring were taken into account by the institutions of the European Union during the Action Plan annual assessment. The monitoring results demonstrate that 70 out of 78 priorities of the EU-Ukraine Association Agenda are being implemented. Essential progress has been achieved only with regard to approximately 20 priorities, mostly in the areas of security, economy, trade, and visa liberalization. With support of the European Program, Public Expert Council for the Ukrainian Part of the EU-Ukraine Cooperation Committee (Youkraine.eu) has joined advocacy of the reforms, so important for Ukraine, and public awareness campaign on the need of their implementation. The Foundation has also supported a number of “expert talks” on the advantages of europeization (implementation of European norms, standards and practices) for the population of Ukraine. This included implementation of European standards in gas market regulation, improvement of the electoral legislation, and establishment of the “Open Sky” common air space with the EU. We have also taken efforts to study the experience of our neighboring countries on their way towards Europe. The Renaissance Foundation organized, jointly with Arseniy Yatseniuk’s Open Ukraine Foundation, a
34
EUROPEAN PROGRAM
number of platform discussions “Examination of Foreign Transformations”. Experts from the Czech Republic, Slovenia, Slovakia, Romania, Bulgaria, Serbia, Turkey, Georgia, Moldova, and Azerbaijan participated in the discussions on development of the civil society, education, public procurement, primary medical care, culture and youth policies. The exchange of experience between the experts from these countries and Ukraine resulted in recommendations on implementation of reforms in Ukraine with due account to the nations’ experience. Public opinion leaders and civic activists from most of the regions of Ukraine became trainees of the Second A nnual European Integration School suppor ted by the Foundation. They had an oppor tunit y to study Ukraine’s commitments within the framework of the EU - Ukraine Association Agenda, assess the status of their implementation, and bring this assessment to the notice of the EU Delegation in Ukraine.

The European Program has provided support to activities of the Ukrainian National Platform, Eastern Partnership Civil Society Forum. The Platform played an active role in advocating initialing of the EU-Ukraine Association Agreement by initiating a number of public statements and joining others. The Platform experts provided important feedback to the European Union with regard to the Annual Report on Implementation of the European Neighborhood Policy in Ukraine. The unprecedented event organized by the Platform was the Civil Society Forum “EU-Ukraine Summit 2011: Civil Dimension� on December 19, 2011, with participation of President of the European Council Herman Van Rompuy and President of the European Commission Jose Manuel Barroso. This event
36
EUROPEAN PROGRAM
became a clear signal of recognition of the Ukrainian civil society as an important partner for the EU. In November 2011, the pilot issue of the European Integration Index of Easter Partnership countries was promulgated. This is a survey organized by the European Program that annually evaluates European integration processes in Ukraine, Moldova, Belarus, Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan. Comparison of the progress achieved by these countries will also help the European Union institutions with implementation of the principle “more for more� (more support and involvement in response to implementation of the reforms) declared by the EU. The survey results demonstrate that Ukraine that was once considered the flagship of the European Neighborhood Policy was in reality behind Moldova and Georgia by many indicators. In spite of its relatively developed relations with the EU, Ukraine has not carried out significant domestic transformations to get closer to the EU standards. For example, although Ukraine has already completed negotiations with the EU on the deep and comprehensive free trade area, the country lags behind other countries of the Eastern Partnership in development of the market economy and appropriate business climate. We expect that the Index will eventually become an important tool in the hands of the Eastern Partnership civil society so as to implement in their respective countries the European values, standards and practices, and develop public demand for European integration in the Eastern Partnership countries.
Open civil monitoring will continue serving as a reliable tool for the European Union in the process of evaluation of the reforms in Ukraine President of the European Commission Jose Manuel Barroso
37
EUROPE WITHOUT BARRIERS
An important success for the Ukrainian society was the framework agreement concluded at the end of 2011 amending the current Visa Facilitation Agreement between Ukraine and EU. Already in 2012, the share of multientry long-term visas is expected to increase as is the list of those entitled to receive visas at no charge, including in particular, representatives of the civil society organizations. To a large extent, this success became possible thanks to many years of monitoring and public lobbying by “Europe without Barriers” Initiative (www.novisa.com.ua) supported by the European Program. “Europe without Barriers” remains the only initiative constantly drawing attention of the EU countries’ embassies and especially their consulate officers to the problems with implementation of the Visa Facilitation Agreement. “Europe without Barriers” has developed a “rating list” of the EU consulates operating in Kyiv and in the regions of Ukraine. Fulfillment of the Visa Liberalization Action Plan by Ukraine is the
38
EUROPEAN PROGRAM
precondition for implementation of visa-free travel for the citizens of Ukraine by the EU. “Europe without Barriers” has conducted public monitoring of implementation of the Plan by Ukraine. The monitoring results confirm that the Ukrainian authorities are not taking enough effort to cancel visa requirements with the EU: a proper anti-corruption authority has not been established, and the required laws concerning the identification documents (introduction of biometric passports) and protection against discrimination have not been passed. That is why Ukraine cannot proceed to the second stage of the Action Plan implementation, i.e. enforcement of the legislative changes.
“Europe without Barriers” and Donetsk Institute for Social Studies and Political Analysis have also conducted the first independent survey of the real intentions of the Ukrainians to emigrate to the EU
The survey outcome shows that the introduction of the visa-free travel as such will not lead to any essential increase of the levels of the Ukrainian migration to the EU. Only 1.5% of the adult citizens of Ukraine have clear plans to leave for Schengen States for purposes of employment or emigration. They do not perceive visas as a serious barrier.
39
EUROPEAN IDENTITY OF UKRAINE The European Program promotes Ukrainian perception of being a part of Europe. In 2011, we supported a number of initiatives on the links of Ukraine, its regions and cities with other European countries. The projects shed light on past experience of dissemination of the European traditions of local self-government and Magdeburg Law in Ukraine. We propagated contributions of famous people who were born or lived in Ukraine to the development of European and global culture. The European Program supported more than 200 events with participation of inhabitants from some forty 40 cities, towns and villages. The Europe Day was celebrated for the first time with the motto “I share European values”. Thanks to the support of the European Program, youth organizations, activists, volunteers, students, teachers, and scholars had a chance to obtain information on opportunities of participation in the programs of scientific and cultural cooperation with the EU. These are programs of the European Cultural Foundation and European Youth Foundation of the Council of Europe, EU programs “Culture”, “Youth in Action”, “Tempus”, and EU scientific programs.

The Foundation takes significant efforts to overcome drawbacks of post-Soviet higher education for journalists. For the past three years, we have supported the New Ukraine School of Professional Journalism. Leading experts and journalists from Ukraine and abroad are invited to teach at the school. In general, two thirds of the training is taken by conceptual lectures and courses of general humanitarian nature while one third is composed of professional specialized classes. The main outcome of the project is formation of the community, a network of socially responsible journalists who effectively apply their acquired knowledge and comply with ethical standards of the profession.
44
MASS MEDIA
The school graduates work as college presidents, media managers, and journalists who develop a professionally responsible community. They help one another look for information, prepare reports, and implement joint projects. One of such initiatives is the New Ukraine information and analysis portal (http://novaukraina.org). The program also provides direct support to good quality independent media. In particular, the program has supported Our Money investigative journalism web project (http://nashigroshi.org/ ) from the moment of its inception. The project team has authored a large number of high profile investigations of corruption and abuse of office in public procurement, leading to political decisions and dismissals of public employees and forcing response of law enforcement agencies.
45
MEDIA LITERACY
Good quality journalism can be offered to the public only if there is demand for quality journalism. That is why the program has been supporting for over a year activities of the Ukrainian Press Academy (hereinafter referred to as UPA) and of other organizations working to increase public media literacy. Together with the Institute of Innovative Technologies and Educational Content of the Ministry of Educations and Science, Youth and Sports of Ukraine, the UPA has developed a curriculum for the course of Media Education (Media Literacy) for Pedagogic Universities and a curriculum for full-time schools of teachers’ professional development in media education (media literacy) at postgraduate pedagogical institutions. As a result, media education today is taught at fourteen institutions of pedagogical postgraduate education as a separate training course (Kharkiv Academy of Post-Graduate Pedagogic Education, Sevastopol Institute of Post-Graduate Pedagogic Education, and others) and has been incorporated into other training courses in the form of compulsory lectures for all teachers undergoing retraining. In 2012, three more teacher-

training universities intend to introduce the media education course in their curricula. Today Ukraine is conducting a national experiment to introduce the optional training course in media culture for 10th graders of general secondary schools. The course is now taught at over eighty schools. We will continue promoting media education as a compulsory part of the training curricula for secondary schools and supporting quality teaching.
47
NEW MEDIA
Development of communication technologies and intense expansion of social (“new”) media dramatically transform the landscape where traditional mass media like TV, radio, and press are operating. The advertising market, which is the financial base of independent mass media, is radically changing. New efficient tools are appearing to work with the audience, search and process information, and citizen journalism gains more and more influence. Therefore, the program’s task is to foster the capacity of traditional mass media to efficiently use new media in their work. For this purpose, the Foundation supports the Institute of Journalism at Taras Shevchenko Kyiv National University whose experts develop curricula for regular and special courses in the new media for regional universities. The project team has run a series of trainings for Departments of Journalism instructors from different cities of Ukraine on the use of new technologies in journalist’s work. The trainers are the best experts from Ukraine and abroad. This will help schools of journalism become richer and more modern (see details at the web-site http://www.newmedia.univ. kiev.ua/).
48
MASS MEDIA
The program has supported the Second Summer MediaNext School for young journalists and students of journalism. This year the school’s activities focused on visualization of the data in journalism as one of the modern media principles. The school trainers were the leading Ukrainian experts in the new media, journalists and editors of the key Ukrainian media companies. The school students learnt to effectively use multi-media and social networks in journalist’s activities, to search for information, they studied on-line stylistics and reputation management. The program has also suppor ted development and launch of t went y sites for t went y district printed media of Kherson, Zaporizhya and Mykolayiv Regions. The project has conducted trainings for the media employees on website administration and news content management.

EDUCATION PROGRAM Public influence on educational policy Anti-corruption efforts in the area of education Right to education Inclusive education
Fostering systemic changes in Ukraine’s education to adopt the best European practices
PUBLIC INFLUENCE ON EDUCATIONAL POLICY Over the course of 2011, specialized non-governmental organizations had closely followed the statutory and regulatory initiatives of the Ministry of Education, Science, Youth and Sports. Experts scrutinized practically every decision or important document adopted by the Ministry. With the assistance of the Foundation, the Education Monitoring Center conducted an analysis and distributed the public expert assessment of the Cabinet of Ministers draft Law On Higher Education and the 2012-2021 National Strategy for Education Development in Ukraine. Active public discussions were launched regarding the controversial higher education admission rules, potential corruption schemes in relation to application for admission and acceptance of applicants, as well as some controversial documents such as the Teachers’ Code of Ethics which, under public pressure, was eventually removed from the agenda. Owing to the support provided by the Foundation to the Education Monitoring Center, everyone interested could obtain the information and detailed expert evaluation of the draft Public Standards for Basic and Complete Secondary Education, particularly their pros and cons. The analysis focused on amendments to the general education school curricula, criteria for evaluating academic performance of students, primary school curricula, and draft amendments to the Law of Ukraine On Preschool Education regarding the right of parents to pick the language of kindergarten education for their children.
52
EDUCATION PROGRAM
With our support, the Center for Testing Technologies and Education Quality Monitoring developed an evaluation report containing recommendations on implementation of strict education quality assessment indicators in Ukraine.
53
ANTI-CORRUPTION EFFORTS IN THE AREA OF EDUCATION The Foundation has played a significant part in the implementation in Ukraine of the compulsory independent external educational assessment of applicants to higher education institutions. This helped to partially eliminate corruption in higher education of Ukraine. Nevertheless, corruption still remains a big problem for education in Ukraine. According to the Ukrainian student survey conducted by the Democratic Initiatives Foundation, 33.2 percent of respondents have had personal experience with corruption. An exper t sur vey conducted by the ERA research association suggests that the issue of briber y cannot be resolved through punishment. To stop corruption in the education system, the government procurement system needs to be aligned with market demand, the licensing and accreditation criteria should be revised
More than 3,000 appeals have been received via the telephone hotline, e-mail, and online consultations provided by the monitors.
54
EDUCATION PROGRAM
to streamline the number of higher education institutions, and academic dignit y should be promoted among students. Changes to the education process should include introducing ex ternal educational assessment of students as well as improving internal assessment criteria. One of the essential contributing factors to an efficient countercorruption policy is civil action against corruption in higher education institutions. This involves day-to-day monitoring of the education process by specialized non-governmental organizations and urging students and teachers to take a more active stand against corruption in higher education institutions. During the admission examinations of 2011, the Committee of Voters of Ukraine and the Opora network joined efforts with the Education program to make the entrance examinations for admission to higher education institutions fair and transparent. 500 civil society observers monitored the examination campaign in sixty six of the most prestigious higher education institutions. This included analysis of admission rules in each of the selected institutions, the announcement by the universities of the government procurement figures, and compiling ranked lists of applicants recommended for admission. The civil obser vers managed to document evidence of violations and bring them to notice of the government and mass media. The majorit y of complaints involved the work of admission boards, namely their failure to promptly enter the information into the Konkurs (the Competition) system, delays in the announcement of cancelled competitions for cer tain teaching courses, and implied corruption in the form of awarding ex tra credit for completing preparator y courses.
55
RIGHT TO EDUCATION
Experts and university professors have developed and launched educational law courses for students of several higher education institutions in Kharkiv, Luhansk and Kyiv. To provide advice to school and kindergarten teachers on many amendments to the legislation affecting their professional activity, online legal advice service was launched on the Shkilnyi svit (School World) publishing house website (http:// www.osvitaua.com/). More than 1,000 requests came from teachers across Ukraine in 2011. The Foundation provided help to a number of communities where schools were closing as the result of school network reform. Many experts claim that
56
EDUCATION PROGRAM
in Ukraine this process involves blatant violations of law. Decisions to disband schools are often made in a non-transparent manner which leads to conflicts between the school advocacy groups and the local government. The Eastern Ukrainian Civic Initiative Center’s project entitled Studying Law to Save Schools focuses on the training of community activists to protect school staff from dismissal, children from violation of their right to quality education, and the community from decline should the community school be closed.
57
INCLUSIVE EDUCATION
The Foundation supports the implementation in Ukraine of inclusive education enabling children with special needs to attend general education schools and exercise their right to education. According to the European Research Association (ERA), 70 percent of respondents in Ukraine claimed that they welcomed the inclusion. 50 percent of respondents considered inclusive education a necessary step towards change not only in education but in the society at large. 76 percent of respondents believed that the implementation of inclusive education would promote tolerance in the society. (The survey was conducted by the ‘InMind’ group in June-December 2011. The national sample size was 500 respondents.) In the absence of systemic government support, inclusive education in Ukraine is implemented at the grassroots level, and the number of general education schools accepting children with special needs is increasing with every year. The implementation of inclusion in Ukraine is hampered by the lack of individual programs
58
EDUCATION PROGRAM
for children with special needs, specialized and technical literature and equipment, and insufficient knowledge and experience of working with such children. The premises of Ukrainian schools are practically not suited for children with special needs as there are no elevators, wheelchair ramps, etc. The legislative framework for inclusive education is also imperfect. With the assistance from the IRF, a monitoring instrument called Inclusion Index was introduced for Ukrainian schools and kindergartens to improve the quality of services provided by educational institutions for children with special needs. For parents with children with hearing loss, a textbook was developed to assist in improving communication with a child, preschool preparation, and successful social adaptation. For preschool age children, hand alphabets and sign language posters were distributed to help them learn the sign language. Civil society activists of the Civic Initiative Club have launched a website where everyone can find information about inclusive education institutions in seven oblasts of Ukraine (www.inclusia.org.ua).

PUBLIC HEALTH Palliative care Stop Pain Law and health Access to essential medicines Harm reduction
Building up civil society capacity to develop health care system on the principles of human rights and evidencebased medicine
PALLIATIVE CARE
The Foundation promotes development of palliative care in Ukraine. Palliative care (PC) provides patients who have incurable diseases with an opportunity to obtain proper treatment and live in adequate conditions till the end of one’s life. Our goals are to integrate palliative care in the general healthcare system and implement efficient and cost-efficient models of PC delivery. 500,000 persons in Ukraine require Palliative Care annually, including cancer patients, patients living with AIDS, diabetes, tuberculosis, etc. “Many diseases, many lives, many voices” was the motto of the national seven-day campaign to celebrate the International Palliative Care Day in October in fifteen regions of Ukraine. The campaign provided information on the problems of the patients living with terminal diseases, fundraising opportunities to support in-patient hospices, and the organizations providing support for the patients with grave diseases. Healthcare professionals, volunteers, civil society activists, and the clergy join their efforts under the auspices of “The Ukrainian League for Palliative Care” (http://ligalife.com.ua). This national association works to improve polices related to handling controlled medicines, particularly those routinely administered for pain management, to develop PC standards and a national palliative care strategy. The League’s goal is to promote reform in the healthcare system to ensure quality healthcare for palliative patients who are facing a critical lack of government funding and trained staff. The first training course for nurses – PC trainers has been conducted in Ukraine by City of Hope Hospice (USA) and Shupik National Academy for Postgraduate Medical Education trainers in line with the ELNEC international program. They were trained in providing care for palliative patients, communicating with families, and prescribing efficient pain treatment. The ELNEC course has been translated into Ukrainian and will be sent to all medical schools to train nurses.
62
PUBLIC HEALTH
With the Foundation’s support, human rights organizations have provided legal advice for palliative patients and their family members in Kharkiv, Rivne and Simferopol, particularly on pain treatment and access to quality healthcare. The most outrageous cases of the palliative patients’ rights abuse have been documented and submitted to the national report on palliative patients’ rights (www.palliative.at.ua). In Severodonetsk (Luhansk Region), a physician refused to prescribe pain treatment medicines to patient M. He was referred to the local hospital, however the patient turned down the admittance as according to his family members he wanted to die at home. The family members approached human rights organizations with a request for an explanation whether patients had the right to get pain treatment at home. After appeals by human rights activists, patient M. received the pain treatment he needed and stayed with his family. The Program has also supported the activities of “Hospice at Home” multidisciplinary teams in Mykolayiv and Transcarpathian Regions. Hospice at Home doctors provide care for some fifty palliative patients per month, respecting their right to stay at home.
63
STOP PAIN
StopBil (Stop Pain) civic campaign (www.stopbil.in.ua) was launched in December 2011 on the initiative of the IRF and Open Society Foundation Network Program to draw the attention to the problem of access to pain treatment in Ukraine. Ukraine remains the sole country in Europe where only injectable morphine is used for pain relief. Patients have to endure both the pain caused by the disease and that caused by injections. International organizations consider this treatment to be a kind of torture. Seeking to relieve the suffering of palliative patients, we advocate registration of oral morphine in Ukraine and amending the outdated and excessively precautionary legislation regulating controlled medicines. Within the frame of StopBil campaign, support groups for patients and their family members have been operating in Rivne, Ivano-Frankivsk, Vinnytsya, Mykolayiv, Kherson and Dnipropetrovsk. The groups advocate patients’ rights and register patient reports about the facts of refusal to provide opioid analgesics at healthcare facilities. Around 500,000 Ukrainians need palliative care and relief of pain symptoms caused by incurable diseases (data has been provided by Human Rights Watch)
The story of resident of Cherkasy L., cancer patient, has been broadcast by national television channels under the title “Epidemic of pain”. “I was crying (of pain), I moaned and howled”, said the woman describing the recent six months of her disease. The family members confessed that they had to approach drug dealers to obtain painkillers. After the story had been broadcast, the patient was allowed to have an increased dose of opioid analgesics.
The case of this family is not unique. It proves that the current legislative system of control over circulation of narcotic drugs pushes patients and their family members into breaching the law to get the pain treatment they need.
64
PUBLIC HEALTH
StopBil campaign will continue until the problem of providing patients with the medicines they need is finally resolved.
65
LAW AND HEALTH
The work of civil society organizations operating in the area of law and public health has resulted in promotion of human rights as a basis for development of medical law and efficient models of free legal aid delivery for the vulnerable population. The continuous cooperation of the IRF with the Foundation of Health Law and Bioethics has promoted development of health law as an academic discipline. Using its previous experience of introducing health law into curricula of medical universities, the Foundation has launched, in cooperation with the Ministry of Healthcare of Ukraine, a working group to draft “Health Law of Ukraine� training course for students of law. This standard course has been approved by the Ministry of Education and Science, Youth and Sport of Ukraine and
66
PUBLIC HEALTH
agreed with the Ministry of Justice and Ministry of Healthcare of Ukraine. Now law students at universities with III-IV accreditation level enrolled in MA and BA+ (specialist) degree programs will be trained in health law. The Program has suppor ted publication of “Healthcare and Human Rights� tex tbook (ht tp://healthrights.org.ua / dlja-juristiv/prak tichnii - posibnik / ). The book contains international mechanisms of human rights protection, case studies on their application in dif ferent countries and dif ferent t ypes of violations, as well as solutions. It will be instrumental for legal exper ts, human rights activists, defense law yers, professors, and students of health law. Some other initiatives and projects suppor ted by the Program include a series of workshops on human rights in healthcare for defense law yers and human rights activists that have provided additional legal tools for practical activities and promoted exchange of experience; internships for graduates of law universities to help them study national and international experience as well as get practical skills in conducting such cases at cour ts.
67
ACCESS TO ESSENCIAL MEDICINES
According to Ministry of Health, the estimated number of patients with viral hepatitis B and C in Ukraine is more than 2 million, and the disease is spreading with the highest speed in Europe. Physical and financial accessibility of drugs is an inalienable element of a person’s right to life. That is the reason why in 2011 we supported the initiative to set up the Community Advisory Board on Medical Treatment. This organization united patients with different diagnoses but with the shared goal to ensure affordable treatment through transparent tenders, timely supply of medicines, and responsible attitude of healthcare professionals to the process of treatment.
68
PUBLIC HEALTH
The Foundation has supported the initiatives that have publicly brought up the issue of hepatitis C spread and provided information on opportunities for prevention and diagnostics. The key barrier on the way to overcome the epidemic of hepatitis C in Ukraine is an excessively high price of drugs: a treatment course would cost over UAH 160,000. The government does not provide specific funds for treatment of the patients living with hepatitis. With the support of the Program, a group of civil society organizations has collected more than 1,000 signatures for a petition calling the government to provide funds from the national budget for 15,000 treatment courses for the period up to 2015 and free testing and 50% price reduction for the drugs to treat hepatitis C. With our support, free HCV testing sessions were conducted in eight regions of Ukraine on 28 July, the World Hepatitis Day, and information materials were distributed. With the Program’s support, five schools for patients were opened in Poltava, Sumy, and other regions, so more than 80 persons per month may obtain reliable information, get free professional advice, and communicate with other patients.
69
HARM REDUCTION
Ukraine remains the epicenter of HIV/AIDS epidemic in Central and Eastern Europe. Injection drugs are among the core drivers of the epidemic.
70
Drug use harm reduction approaches at preventing a range of negative consequences both for the drug user and the society in general. These approaches seek to reduce the pace of HIV/AIDS epidemic and other infectious diseases in Ukraine via prevention activities targeting injection drug users. Public Health Program continues to support the communities directly affected by the problems of drug use and HIV/AIDS. We support advocacy initiatives to improve access of most vulnerable groups to prevention and treatment services, protect MARPs rights – drug users, people living with HIV, OST program doctors and patients, sex workers. We also support implementation of progressive policies and practices ensuring the access of the most-risk groups to prevention and treatment services.
PUBLIC HEALTH
Due to the Program’s expert and advocacy efforts, the Ministry of Healthcare, the Ministry of the Interior, the State Drug Control Committee, State Penitentiary Service, and the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine have drafted and signed the order on continuous substitution therapy treatment at prisons and restricted liberty facilities. It was a significant step forward in ensuring the right of patients to access to essential treatment in custody. The Foundation has supported the inter-ministerial working group at the Ministry of Healthcare of Ukraine, it coordinated the work of experts, initiated negotiations and meetings with respective government officials, provided expert assistance in the process of coordinating the text of the order with the aforementioned ministries and agencies. An advocacy school for OST patients was conducted to strengthen community mobilization. With support of the Program, the OST school graduates succeeded in changing policies and practices at the local levels, getting, in particular, ensured uninterrupted OST at healthcare facilities of Zhytomyr and Donetsk regions. This will open up a possibility for planned admittance of OST patients to hospitals, in particular maternity hospitals. Efforts continue to introduce prescription-based procedures for the drug delivery, which will provide better mobility and freedom for the patients. Professional legal advice and legal defense services in the courts, including in strategic litigation cases, increase protection of human rights of MARPs, which has a considerable impact on the availability of prevention and treatment programs for them. The Program continues to develop human rights initiatives in this area. the All-Ukrainian Human Rights Network was set up in 2011, bringing together lawyers and attorneys providing free legal aid for most-at-risk population groups such as drug users, OST patients, and people living with HIV (http:// pravo.prostir.ua/).

Lack of proper education hampers full-fledged social integration of the Roma. Roma of Ukraine Program works with children of pre-school age within the frame of Early Childhood Centers providing scholarships for university students and promoting employment of Roma by supporting vocational training opportunities. With support of Roma Education Fund (Budapest), 91 students were given an opportunity to take university courses in 2011-2012 and obtain degrees in law, economy, finance, healthcare, engineering, management and other professions. Eleven students received support to study foreign languages. In cooperation with London-based Early Childhood Program of the Open Society Institute and Step by Step National Ukrainian Foundation, the Program
74
ROMA OF UKRAINE
has supported four early childhood centers in Transcarpathian Region. The centers have introduced the courses in “Responsible parenthood” and “Let’s prepare for school”. In 2011, Roma of Ukraine Program launched “Promoting employment for Roma” component to assist Roma people in finding jobs or start their own businesses. We supported five projects that trained them in the skills of shoemaker, seamstress, locksmith, hairdresser and others to facilitate their further employment. In Mizhirya District, Transcarpathian Region, the project implemented by Promin community development agency has resulted in providing jobs for the Roma who will sort out plastic waste and recycle it with the use of appopriate equipment.
75
HUMAN RIGHTS
Unlike most other national minorities of Ukraine, Roma people do not have their own state. Roma is the second largest ethnic group that survived genocide during the Second World War. Integration of Roma is one of the most important issues for the European Union agenda in the area of national minorities. The lack of passports is one of the major problems Roma face in Ukraine, often resulting in total lack of rights and social protection. We have continued supporting the projects to provide Roma communities with passports.
76
ROMA OF UKRAINE
Ten passport projects have covered Roma communities in six regions with the total population of 20,000. 285 persons were provided with passports, and 1,313 Roma got legal advice. We provided advice to the Roma on the necessity of getting proper documents (passports, identification codes, etc) within certain terms, we helped them fill in requests at passport departments and pay government fees Eleonora Kulchar, the leader of “Blago” Transcarpathian Charitable Foundation. Ten projects were supported in seven areas with Roma communities within the request for proposals “Strengthening legal opportunities in Roma communities of Ukraine”. These initiatives conducted awareness campaigns for Roma on human rights, and cooperation with government authorities on identifying cases of human rights abuse and preventing them.

HEALTH MEDIATORS The work of health mediators has provided the only opportunity for many Roma to get advice and assistance on the social benefits they were eligible to receive Maksym Dzhum, mediator, “Good people planet” NGO, Odessa
The Foundation promotes the introduction or the program for Roma health mediators that has proved its efficiency in Romania, Slovakia, Hungary, and other countries. With our support, “Ciricli” Roma Women Foundation has been implementing this initiative for more than two years in Ukraine. The leaders who enjoy trust and respect of community members work as mediators, providing advice on the most acute problems for the Roma such as visiting doctors, attending schools, getting social benefits, obtaining ID cards, etc. The mediators have become a bridge between Roma and various institutions (nurseries and schools, out-patient and in-patient clinics, passport departments, civil registry offices, etc.) In 2011, the mediators worked in five regions of Ukraine (Transcarpathia, Lviv. Odessa, Donetsk and Kyiv regions) covering almost 14,000 persons. The Foundation develops best practices and working instruments which should be used by the central and local governments after donor

support of Roma health mediator projects will end up. The Foundation has supported the inter-ministerial working group at the Ministry of Healthcare of Ukraine, Ministry of Family, Youth and Sports, Institute of Legislative policy of the Parliament of Ukraine, international and civil society organizations. This group’s goal is to develop a National Program of Roma Health Mediators in Ukraine and similar programs for Odessa and Transcarpathia Regions.
79
ROMA YOUTH
The scholarships provided to Roma universities students by the Roma Education Fund has fostered a certain community of Roma youth interested in civil society activities. The alumni are provided with the Foundation’s support to carry out their own initiatives in the communities, identify the most problematic issues and resolve them with support of their peers. Seeking to engage young Roma in civil society initiatives as much as possible, Roma of Ukraine Program has conducted the All-Ukrainian Roma Youth Forum. It included a training on drafting and designing project proposals, and trainings on volunteer work. A request for small grant proposals was announced for Roma youth organizations at the end of 2011 and eleven projects were supported, in particular on organizing and conducting New Year celebrations for children. An Odessa NGO conducted a survey of Roma mass murders in Odessa region in the War World Two, and Ame Roma NGO (Cherkasy Region) organized a series of joint activities of Roma and Ukrainian youth to combat xenophobia.

In 2011, we launched “Roma Scouting” project in cooperation with “East-East: Partenership Beyond Borders” program. Plast, the largest scout organization in Ukraine, and Roma activists studied the experience of engaging Roma youth and children in education programs with scout methodology in Slovakia. The young Roma saw the activities of other civil society organizations, and learned how to engage children and youth into scouting programs. Roma youngsters are also present in social networks: Terne Roma group features more than 250 members in “Vkontakte” social network. The scholarship grantees, youth project participants, and anybody who is interested can communicate, identify like-minded people, look for new approaches to address the problems of local communities, as well as plan their future joint activities.

Building long-term strategic partnership between civil society organizations of different countries to share ideas and best practices
INTERNATIONAL PARTNERSHIP In 2011, the East-East Program focused its efforts on sharing best practices in civic engagement to address the most pressing social/economic and social/political concerns in the society. By encouraging the exchange of best practices in civic activities, the program has contributed to the expert growth of civil society in Ukraine and improved coordination between non-governmental institutions both nationally and internationally. The Program promotes the development of long-term strategic partnerships between non-governmental organizations in different countries, primarily in Central and Eastern Europe. We help address the social issues that arose during the period of transition following the demise of the Soviet Union and the socialist system. With the assistance of the Program, 140 Ukrainian civil society activists and experts took part in various international meetings and events in 2011. The European Integration Index, the analytical tool to evaluate the progress of reforms in the Eastern Partnership countries, was introduced in cooperation with the European Program. The East-East Program has, in cooperation with the European Program and the Open Ukraine Foundation, provided assistance to a series of international expert discussions that eventually resulted in the recommendations regarding the implementation of various reforms in Ukraine. The best practice projects were implemented in cooperation with non-governmental organizations of Romania, Slovakia, Bulgaria, and Macedonia, opening up new opportunities for improving the mechanisms for social integration of boarding school and orphanage alumni, developing educational and integration programs for Roma children, establishing Roma social centers, and attracting investment into social housing programs.
84
EAST-EAST: PARTNERSHIP BEYOND BORDERS
When sharing practices in special needs advocacy, the participants from Ukraine, Poland, Kazakhstan, Georgia, Kyrgyzstan, Belarus, and Armenia informed the society and the government about the need to engage persons with special needs in community planning. The experts from Ukraine and the Czech Republic have planned new ways of cooperation to stop illegal immigration as well as to promote the integration of legal refugees. These include mutual consultation and sharing of programs for self-employment of refugees. The cooperation with international experts resulted in the publication of reference books on European standards and regulations for immigration and refugee protection, best practices in implementation of various reforms, independent external educational assessment, and so on. In 2011, the Bridge of Reforms initiative was launched in cooperation with the Open Society Foundation which enables the sharing of best practices in implementation of reforms in post-Soviet and post-communist nations. Discussions with experts from Georgia, Romania, Bulgaria, Moldova, Croatia, and Macedonia of the implementation of the justice and police reform, including traffic police reform, helped outline a number of innovative methods to stop corruption in those areas to ensure efficient progress of the reform.
Budget spending would be a lot more efficient if the community and local public officials had a true understanding of the problems of persons with special needs and the latter would be consulted during the development and implementation of such projects Serhiy Chumak, Head of the Poltava division of the Ukrainian Association of Organizations for People with Disabilities

EAST-EAST: PARTNERSHIP BEYOND BORDERS
The supported projects have become an innovation to the representatives of organizations working with the vulnerable population groups such as persons with special needs, the terminally ill and the HIV-positive, lower-income families, single parents, etc. Best practice sharing provided them with an opportunity to meet their colleagues, borrow practical ideas for day-to-day activities, and learn about new initiatives and actual practices of communicating the needs of the persons in their care to the public on the community level. New ideas were generated regarding the employment of youth with special needs, volunteering for social services to vulnerable groups, etc. The projects with the participation of teachers and school principals once again underlined the need to use schools as a platform to promote active and responsible citizenship among youth, as well as to introduce optional or extracurricular civic education classes at schools. The projects resulted in the publication of some useful guidelines including a digest for school principals on development of publicly active schools, best practices in community self-governance, a manual on employment of young people in local labor markets, and a reference book on palliative care.

Promoting new opportunities for people who suffered the most from the financial and economic crisis
SUPPORT TO YOUTH EMPLOYMENT To reduce the negative impact of the crisis on the labor market, the Anti-Crisis Humanitarian Program has developed a project to support Youth Employment Centers and Centers of Student Job Placement. We supported 24 initiatives to expand the range of services of the Youth Employment Centers, develop training programs to start businesses, conduct research, develop textbooks and training materials on employment and career opportunities. University Career Center projects suggested developing websites with the databases of potential employers, student CVs, and other reference materials on job placement. The universities conducted vacancy fairs, career days, and other activities that resulted in development of communication platforms for students and employers.
3,215 persons participated in the trainings on youth employment, and other 3,064 persons received individual consultations. About 2,000 persons found permanent or temporary jobs.
With the Foundation’s support, Lesya Ukrainka Career Center of Volyn National University united the efforts of the regional universities and developed a single portal for the network of twelve training institutions in Volyn in support of systemic work with the employers and students of the region. The University conducted Lutsk-2012 City Career Fair where the youth could submit their CVs to the employers and test their professional skills at the “mobile centre for vocational orientation” of Lutsk City Employment Center. The students participated in the trainings “Techniques of looking for a job” and “Use your own experience”, master classes of the Career Center “Interview: Secrets of Success” and “Achieving your Goal in 21 days”.
We have supported activities of five Youth Employment Centers (cities of Vinnytsya, Lviv, Poltava, Ternopyl and Chernihiv). Youth Centre of Lviv Region validated the model of temporary youth employment so that young people could obtain their first job experience. Thanks to the project, almost a hundred students of Lviv had internship at private tourist businesses as interpreters and guides in preparation for Euro-2012 football finals.

ANTI-CRISIS HUMANITARIAN PROGRAM
Thanks to the new youth program developed by Poltava Regional Center of Youth Employment, the number of applications submitted to this Center increased by 10%. The School of Entrepreneurs “Youth Choose Business” started its activities. 100 persons were trained and 21 graduates developed business plans to start their own business. Projects developed by civil society organizations were the most socially oriented and innovative in their approaches to youth employment.
A rural Non-Governmental Organization “Generation Hope” set up a mobile group to render social services to 170 elderly residents of the villages of Tur District, Volyn Region. Twenty unemployed young persons were engaged in the project. The mobile group made almost ninety trips to visit the single people. The organization intends to engage the unemployed youth in paid public works such as removal of illegal dumps, afforestation, cleaning lakes and river banks from garbage, etc.
91
CARE FOR HOMELESS AND ELDERLY PEOPLE We supported 22 initiatives to help mitigate consequences of the crisis for homeless and elderly people. The projects included rendering of urgent social services and targeted humanitarian assistance to single and low-income elderly persons; organization of volunteer projects for the elderly; charity events aimed at collection of donations, food, medications, and personal care products; rendering of medical, hygienic and sanitation services; socialization and organization of leisure activities for elderly people, their involvement in active public life. Homeless persons received free hot meals and medical checkups. Activities were conducted to prevent ill-being and worsening poverty of the children and their families.
Thanks to support of the Foundation, “Social Services Map of Kyiv” has been published for the first time. Social Partnership Foundation collected comprehensive and quality information concerning eleven types of social services rendered to homeless people in Kyiv by non-governmental and governmental organizations. The map marks up 85 social service points: places to receive meals and to spend a night, legal, medical dental and psychological consultation points, clothes and footwear pools, barber’s shops, shower points, dental help rooms, luggage rooms, etc.
Thanks to the Project “Social Patrol in Kyiv: Support to Homeless Persons in Crisis” run by Kyiv Non-Governmental Organization “People’s Help”, permanent social patrolling teams in Solomyanskiy and Svyatoshynskiy districts of the capital city started their work to provide meals, outwear and personal care products for homeless persons. Chernihiv Women’s Human Rights Center rendered legal support to the homeless persons sheltered by Chernihiv centre for social adaptation of homeless and shelterless persons. A number of legal education seminars were conducted for them, they were assisted in renewal of their lost documents, and information was provided on important aspects of labor, family and marriage, and civil legal relations.
92
ANTI-CRISIS HUMANITARIAN PROGRAM
The Program has supported four regional projects of the International Charity Foundation “Caritas of Ukraine” in Ivano-Frankivsk, Lviv and Khmelnytsky regions. Thanks to this activity, almost a thousand single elderly pensioners of Western Ukraine received food packages, as well as social, medical and personal services.
The geriatric home for senior people in the city of Sevastopol has improved medical services for 180 persons most of whom were women. “Sevastopol Moms” and “Association of Sevastopol Patriots” NGOs purchased, within the framework of “Let Us Be Together” project, a magnetic laser, electrocardiograph, inhalator, distiller and other medical items. An entrance ramp was built to facilitate movement of disabled persons on wheelchairs.
93
ASSISTANCE TO REFUGEES
The financial and economic crisis saw downsizing of donors’ assistance and termination of a number of refugee integration projects, therefore further aggravating the situation of this group of people in Ukraine. That is why during 2011 the Anti-Crisis Humanitarian Program supported nine projects and programs of social and humanitarian assistance to the refugees, children refugees, children not escorted by adults, asylum seekers and members of their families. One of the priorities in this area was protection of refugees’ rights, suppression of xenophobia, and development of tolerant public attitudes to the refugees. To support this goal, international camp for children “Sources of Tolerance” was organized in summer of 2011 in Trans Carpathian Region. The camp was visited by the children of 23 ethnical groups who had an opportunity to “get absorbed” in the life of other cultures.
94
ANTI-CRISIS HUMANITARIAN PROGRAM
The project “Let’s Give Children a Summer!” initiated by Rokada Charity Foundation was implemented at the refugees’ integration centre in Troyeschina residential area in Kyiv. A summer camp for refugee children offered training courses of Ukrainian and English languages, dressmaking, beadwork, computer skills, painting, origami and molding classes. Visits to several museums and a number of national feasts were arranged for the visitors of the Centre. A similar program for comprehensive development of the refugee children was run for a whole year in 2011 at the Vita Adaptation Centre for refugee children and asylum seekers founded by the Compassion Charity Foundation in the city of Odessa. Children were attended not only by teachers of Ukrainian language, but also by psychologists and physical training specialists.
95
SUPPORT TO CULTURAL INSTITUTIONS Inadequate government funding of culture became especially visible during the economic crisis. Dependence of such institutions as libraries, museums, national parks, etc. on government funds threatened to destroy the whole sector, leading to huge losses of cultural values and even physical disappearance of thousands of cultural institutions in the rural areas. In response to these challenges, the Anti-Crisis Program concentrated on support to the rural libraries, museums and clubs. In March of 2011, the Anti-Crisis Humanitarian Program, in cooperation with the Ukrainian Center for Museum Development and Rinat Akhmetov’s Foundation “Development of Ukraine”, conducted the international conference “Public Reform of Museum Management and Marketing”. More than 150 museum employees from all regions of Ukraine, as well as experts from USA, Poland, Belorussia, Lithuania, Kazakhstan and Russia discussed the state of affairs in the museum sector of Ukraine. They analyzed the impact of the financial and economic crisis on museums and identified the key problems hampering implementation of innovative approaches to museum management. The program also provided support to a series of regional round tables where experts discussed ways to modernize local museums and improve professional communication in order to implement network projects at the local level. Another large-scale project of the program was the contest “Transformation of Cultural Institutions into Centers of Public Activities and Involvement of Artists in Philanthropy”. The project objective was to breath new life into village clubs by applying new approaches in cooperation with non-governmental and charity organizations. The program has helped many village non-governmental organizations to join efforts of the activists, public authorities, and business to support the local culture clubs. The organizations renovated club buildings, started hobby groups for children and youth, launched activities of amateur art groups, and gave several charity concerts to raise funds for development of cultural institutions. The civil society organizations operating in the sector of culture have set up a network, allowing them to have more active exchange of experience and ideas.
96
ANTI-CRISIS HUMANITARIAN PROGRAM
A renovated village club, the center of civil activity, was inaugurated in the village of Rastiv, Tur District, Volyn Region, thanks to the initiative of the Association of Citizens “Volyn’s Prospects” supported by the Foundation. The villagers, at their own initiative, mobilized support for the village culture center and raised about UAH 3,000 to provide for minor repairs. Local businessmen supported the renovation with bricks and roofing slates. During three months the villagers worked as volunteers every Saturday to restore the club, cleaning the territory, repairing the walls, renewing the stage, purchasing office equipment and furniture, installing lights, and decorating the stage. Folk clothing was purchased for participants of the local amateur dance group. When the facility was ready, the local activists initiated training seminars for those who wanted to start green tourism business.
