Labour and Health Social Initiatives

What Labour and Health Social Initiatives does

Labour and Health Social Initiatives (LHSI) is a Kyiv-based Ukrainian international public organization (NGO) founded in 2002 that designs and implements social service programs for vulnerable populations. Its portfolio spans child protection and online safety (CyberSafeGirls, CYBER SAFE platform, TOY4Participation), psychosocial support for war-affected youth (Mind the Future, E-mpowerYouth), tuberculosis prevention and case-finding among vulnerable groups, rehabilitation for victims of explosive ordnance, and support for internally displaced persons. Programmatic delivery reaches at least seven regions of Ukraine, including Donetsk, Luhansk, Chernivtsi, Kharkiv, Lviv, Vinnytsia, and Kyiv.

LHSI's core technology stack comprises digital platforms rather than a single integrated product. The Mind the Future program uses VR-based immersive psychological coaching for adolescents; the CYBER SAFE platform delivers interactive online safety training for children and adolescents; and the TB REACH workstream deploys digital adherence technology for tuberculosis case finding, patient tracking, and treatment adherence monitoring in partnership with PATH and Stop TB Partnership. Beyond software, LHSI produces methodological guidelines, research publications (including a 2025-2026 study on gender aspects of cyber violence), and educational materials that support program replication and funder reporting.

LHSI operates as a donor-funded non-profit, providing services free of charge to beneficiaries. Revenue derives entirely from international project funding and grants from organizations including the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, the European Union, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Netherlands, Alliance for Public Health, and PATH. Distribution occurs through direct program implementation, partnerships with local social services and government bodies, and NGO consortiums. The business model is best characterized as professional services and grant-funded project implementation rather than commercial revenue generation, with continued program continuity dependent on donor renewal cycles.

Core offering

Labour and Health Social Initiatives (LHSI) is a Ukrainian non-governmental organization that delivers donor-funded social programs for vulnerable populations. Its portfolio includes youth empowerment, online safety and cyberbullying prevention for children, psychosocial support using VR tools, child participation initiatives, tuberculosis case finding and treatment adherence support, and services for victims of explosive ordnance.

Product overview

Labour and Health Social Initiatives (LHSI) is a Ukrainian civil society organization that implements social projects focused on youth development, child protection, digital safety, and public health. Rather than a unified technology platform, LHSI operates a portfolio of projects including youth empowerment programs (E-mpowerYouth, Mind the Future), digital safety initiatives (CyberSafeGirls), child participation tools (TOY4Participation), and public health campaigns (Tuberculosis awareness, explosive ordnance victim services). The organization also produces research publications, educational materials, and digital tools such as the CYBER SAFE platform and VR-based coaching solutions. The individual projects function as standalone social programs rather than integrated modules within a single product architecture.
