“Assistance in establishing justice and transparency” is a new project of the Agency for Legislative Initiatives, which will be implemented with the support of the European Endowment for Democracy (EED).
As part of the Watchers.Media project, the media division of the Agency, will work to ensure transparency and accountability in the legal system, as well as to promote social justice and equality.
As a reminder, the Agency launched Watchers.Media in 2020. This is a specialized publication that publishes materials on significant topics and issues related to military aggression, law enforcement agencies, and investigations of high-profile events and crimes. The publication responds to current topics but also keeps in view those that have lost resonance, forcing them to return to the information space when there is a public interest in this.
Such projects are significant now because the investigation of crimes against humanity and the search for the truth in socially significant cases are, at the exact time key prerequisites for democratic development and post-war reconstruction of Ukraine.
The European Endowment for Democracy (EED) is a committed partner of Ukrainian civil society, supporting initiatives to strengthen democratic processes. We are grateful for the opportunity to jointly implement initiatives that will help Ukraine on its democratic path!
