Drawing on 2023 data, this report will explore the present conditions, attitudes, and behaviours of young people in Ukraine, delving into the aspects of human security, civic participation, community dynamics, trust, sense of belonging and ultimately future visions, which will play a key role during Ukraine’s recovery process. This report tackles these topics by pinpointing the defining traits of youth in 2023 and the evolution of these characteristics from 2021 to 2023. It examines the diverse experiences of young people based on age, gender, and educational background, among other factors, to discern their primary concerns. 

The report is based on reSCORE data, which is a joint initiative funded by USAID and UNDP and implemented by SeeD, serving as an annual assessment tool for societal resilience and recovery and informing the policies and programming of national, regional, and international partners.

The report was jointly developed by the Centre for Sustainable Peace and Democratic Development (SeeD), the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in Ukraine with financial support from the European Union, provided within the “EU4Recovery – Empowering Communities in Ukraine” (EU4Recovery) project.
