UA Experts

What UA Experts does

UA Experts (Громадська організація "UA Experts") is a Ukrainian civic (non-governmental, non-profit) organization headquartered in Kyiv at vul. Institutskaya 15/5, ofis 73, founded in 2013 with approximately 24 employees. Its mission is to provide expert, scientific, and research assistance to the Ukrainian state on reforms — specifically the implementation of UN Sustainable Development Goals, the EU-Ukraine Association Agreement, anti-corruption policy, rule-of-law advancement, human-capital development, and e-governance. The organization positions itself as a team of experts, scientists, practitioners, and peacebuilders, led by Founder Serhiy Nizhynsky and Chair Yuliia Nizhynska.

The organization delivers its work through social programs and advocacy initiatives rather than commercial technology products. The disclosed portfolio includes the "RESPONSE AND PREVENTION" program (advocacy for legislation addressing conflict-related sexual violence), "Mentoring for Leaders: European Integration and Ukraine Recovery," the "ЗРОБИ КРОК. Чуйність перемагає насильство" (Take a Step. Sensitivity Conquers Violence) domestic-violence awareness campaign, and the "Strengthening Demographic Resilience of Ukraine" project aligned with the national Demographic Development Strategy through 2040. No technology platform, software product, API, or proprietary technical asset is described in the available material; "technology" is characterized as the organization's human-rights and advocacy framework itself.

Revenue mechanics are not disclosed. The organization exhibits a non-commercial, donor- and grant-funded operating model: the website includes a public "I want to help" / donation call-to-action and a contact email ([email protected]), but no pricing, fee schedule, membership dues, or commercial offerings are published. Customer/partner engagement is project-based and distributed across Ukrainian state institutions (city councils of Bucha and Smila, Kamianets-Podilskyi regional office), legal-sector partners (Ukrainian Bar Association, Cherkasy Legal Defense Center), and business intermediaries (Khmelnytsky Chamber of Commerce and Industry). Geographic operations are concentrated in Ukraine, with claims of a global partner network supporting international-standard implementation.

Scale indicators2 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• National Democratic Institute (NDI) Ukraine: US-based democracy-support NGO with active Ukraine programming on governance and reform. Broad incumbent because it pursues the same government-reform, civic-society, and EU-integration agenda as UA Experts but at much greater scale and with international institutional backing.
• International Renaissance Foundation: Major George Soros–funded Ukrainian foundation supporting civil society and reform across multiple sectors. Broad incumbent because it is both a funder of and a peer to UA Experts, operating at significantly greater scale across overlapping thematic areas (rule of law, EU integration, civic engagement).

Direct peers

• DEJURE Foundation: Ukrainian rule-of-law and judicial reform NGO. Direct peer because UA Experts lists rule of law advancement and EU Association Agreement implementation as core functions — the same reform agenda DEJURE Foundation pursues.
• Ukrainian Helsinki Human Rights Union: One of Ukraine's longest-standing human rights umbrella organizations. Direct peer because it works on civil liberties protection, legal advocacy, and human rights monitoring — activities directly overlapping with UA Experts' rights-protection mandate.
• Center for Civil Liberties (Центр громадянських свобод): Ukrainian human rights organization and 2022 Nobel Peace Prize laureate. Direct peer because it operates in the same human rights advocacy, rule of law, and civic society space in Ukraine, with comparable programmatic approaches and government-reform engagement.
• Transparency International Ukraine: Ukrainian chapter of the global anti-corruption network. Direct peer because UA Experts explicitly lists anti-corruption policy development among its core activities, and both organizations operate as advocacy-driven NGOs engaging Ukrainian state institutions on reform.
• Centre for Democracy and Rule of Law (CEDEM): Ukrainian think tank focused on democratic governance and rule of law. Direct peer because UA Experts' e-governance, anti-corruption, and EU integration work closely mirrors CEDEM's reform and accountability programming.
• La Strada-Ukraine: Ukrainian NGO focused on combating human trafficking, domestic violence, and gender-based violence. Direct peer because UA Experts' 'Take a Step' domestic violence campaign and CRSV 'Response and Prevention' program address overlapping thematic territory.
• Ukrainian Women's Fund: Ukrainian feminist fund supporting women's rights and GBV response initiatives. Direct peer because UA Experts' domestic violence and CRSV programming operates in the same gender-based-violence advocacy ecosystem and similar donor funding landscape.

Emerging players

• Bohdan Hawrylyshyn Charitable Foundation: Ukrainian charitable foundation supporting education, civic society, and reform initiatives. Emerging player because it engages with the same Ukrainian civic society and government-reform ecosystem as UA Experts but operates with a narrower program portfolio.
