Within the project "CyberSafeGirls: Digital Safety of Ukrainian Girls" a grant competition was held for local NGOs in target regions. The aim of the initiative is to provide gender equality among adolescents and prevent online sexual violence against girls aged 13–17 through educational and counseling activities.

According to the results of the competition, grants were awarded to:

• NGO “Ukrainian Code”” (Kyiv region),

• Vinnytsia Regional Public Organization “Vinnytsia Press Club” (Vinnytsia region),

• NGO “SMART MEDIA” (Kharkiv region).

Grants are aimed at implementing the following initiatives:

• Consultations and information support for adolescents,

• Educational activities and programs for girlswho have faced online violence,

• Engaging adolescents and adults in educational and outreach activities both online and offline.

Collaboration with grantees inspires the project team, and we are already actively working on the implementation of these initiatives. Stay tuned for our further results and developments! 💙
