Ukraine’s youth looking to forge a ‘better future’
Since the beginning of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the youth volunteer movement in the war-torn country has been growing and is now ten times larger than before hostilities began.
That’s according to 20-year-old Tetiana Kravchuk, who is a member of the Young People Advisory Board of the UN Children's Fund, UNICEF, in Ukraine, where she advises on the 2025-2030 Country Programme and youth development projects.
UN News’s Evgeniya Kleshcheva caught-up with her in the margins of the Summit of the Future at UN Headquarters in New York and began by asking how the movement has evolved since February 2022.
