The Embassy of Germany in Ukraine

The Embassy of Germany in Ukraine motivated us to get better with every project.  heir visits meant a lot to us because it showed that our projects become more significant for the participant and for the donors. We take every opportunity to invite the representatives of the Embassy to the project conferences and inform them about the media products we produce. In 2019, we published the brochure with the results of the 2018 project “Changes of Media Education and Political Dialogue Perspectives”. In April 2019 the brochure was delivered to the Embassy of Germany in Kyiv.
