The research focuses on essential areas that define the current state and future trajectory of Ukrainian democracy in the eyes of its citizens.
This report has relied on ten online interviews and five online focus groups, conducted in August 2025 across Ukraine. Our focus groups included three categories of interest: respondents living in settlements near the frontline, respondents living further away from the frontline, and Ukrainian refugees. Also we conducted three interviews with active servicemen in the Ukrainian Armed Forces, one interview with a veteran, two interviews with military conscription officers, two interviews with Ukrainian male civilians, and two interviews with Ukrainian citizens currently residing abroad.
