Civic activists launch a new movement: “The State for You”
Today, one of Ukraine’s main domestic challenges is building a democratic society.
What is a democratic society? It means preventing human rights violations and eradicating the negative phenomenon of corruption.
To address this problem, a civic initiative has been founded: “The State for You”.
Founders:
1. Nataliia Bilak — PhD in Law, co-founder of the Ukraine Charitable Movement Foundation, managing partner of Svitlo Law Firm, human rights defender and researcher.
2. Tetiana Petrova — head of the Support for Discriminated Groups Charitable Foundation, journalist, civic activist and human rights defender.
3. Valentyna Puzikova — PhD in Law, member of the Council of Advocates of Kharkiv Oblast, lawyer and human rights defender.
The project’s mission is to:
1. Foster people’s legal awareness in accordance with European values, particularly an understanding of their own importance to society;
2. Foster legal awareness among officials and civil servants at every level of government, guided by the principle of “the state for the person”, and an understanding of the importance of every individual in the state, their rights and legitimate interests.
The main objectives of the civic initiative “The State for You” are:
– to set the state mechanism in motion;
– to help protect the rights and freedoms of the state;
– preventive action (preventing human rights violations);
– to help restore violated human rights;
– to help raise legal awareness and legal culture;
– to help eradicate corruption;
– to move closer to the EU.
Areas of activity:
1) advocacy;
2) organising outreach activities and raising awareness among people facing situations that require specialised legal knowledge;
3) human rights work aimed at defending people’s legitimate rights and freedoms.
