CORE REPORT
1. ADDRESSING THE KEY ISSUES FOR UKRAINE
The results of the overview of the activities are be reflected in the updated version of the
Overview of 2022 year. More than ever, the international community is called to follow the
situation in Ukraine closely so as to provide further reaction to Russia’s full-scale invasion.
Ukraine Crisis Media Center (UCMC) keeps Ukraine on top of both global and domestic
information agenda.
During the first months of the full-scale invasion, fully meeting our indicators concerning
public events, in-person presentations, briefings, meetings with government officials and
experts was rather challenging. Thus, we were forced to adapt to the war realities and reorient
our activities to online mode and launched a number of new online projects, not planned at the
beginning of the year. For instance, we have launched Live update initiative on our website. It
has provided the key highlights on the Russian invasion of Ukraine from the official sources
(see p. 55). Explaining Ukraine podcast in English was embarked – a joint initiative of UCMC
and Ukraine.World team, an analytical overview of the Russian invasion of Ukraine (see p.
65). In addition, we have started Ukraine in Flames YouTube project as part of our everyday
activity; since July, it has become supported by National Endowment for Democracy (see
p.11). Alas, some of our numbers are not comparable to the pre-war ones, however, we have
managed to adjust to these realities and thrive in other areas and projects. This gives us an
opportunity to continue our mission on advocating for the needs and interests of Ukrainians
and empower citizens to become more civically active, creating Ukraine’s positive image, and
telling the truth about Russia’s war in Ukraine.
The work of the UCMC office, which is close to the government quarter, is challenged by
frequent air raid alarms, power and internet outages. Nevertheless, the team is adjusting its
work to the new realities.
The core directions of work include reaching international audience, analyzing specific
domestic issues, and advocating better solutions. The team united around key tasks and has
been working smoothly to express Ukraine at the highest level, prove its international image,
promote pro-Ukrainian narratives, fight against Russian propaganda and anti-Ukrainian
patterns, find the vulnerabilities and threatening areas and generate proper answers to these
challenges. UCMC both serves as a platform for social activities and communications and
spearheads coordinated push of its agenda trends.
Over the years of work, UCMC has established itself as a stable and influential organization,
for twelve months of 2022, this trend has only accelerated.

2. EXPANDING DIGITAL PRESENCE
Due to the Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, our partners, Content Analysis Center,
temporarily stopped providing the services of media monitoring that we were utilizing during
the previous year. Therefore, since the end of February, UCMC kept the track of its
performance via the analytics tools of its website and social media, and adjusted the
publications topics, messaging and schedule according to the findings of the available metrics.
UCMC continued to actively use its website’s increased capacity to reach to wider audiences.
The website developers team continues to improve it, making it more comprehensive for users
and more impactful in terms of outreach. This work is well visible in the tracking indicators.
The UCMC teams happily utilize it to place all their materials in the variety of formats – one
place for all, which is important for growing the audience of each other and enhance the
organization’s digital impact overall.
With a start of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, UCMC website’s performance
indicators increased in more than five-times (in comparison with 2021 numbers) – due to the
high demand on the information from the ground. After a few months since the invasion, the
interest from international audience in Ukraine slowly started to fade, UCMC still managed to
expand its regular visitors number and attract new visitors via the diverse range of formats and
topics of publications.
The numbers demonstrate strong interest of the audience to the materials posted to the
UCMC website. Please see below the key indicators (users, user sessions, pageviews) for
2022:

Due to the increased volume of publications in foreign languages with the efforts of all teams
of UCMC, we have managed to increase the number of visitors from different countries. For
example, the number of visitors who read our materials in English in 2022 increased in 7,5
times in comparison to 2021 (371,541 vs 52 024). Also, in 2022, it is noticeable that the English
version of the website got more visitors than Ukrainian.
Please see the country and language breakdown of UCMC website visitors in detail below:

UCMC also intensified its communication activities via social media channels with a main
focus on Facebook, Telegram and Twitter as the most popular networks among domestic and
international audiences to stay informed about the ongoing war. Each of the teams responded
quickly to the emergency state and reoriented its content plans and publications to more
relevant to the context and useful for the target audiences.

In addition, due to the website optimization in 2020, UCMC secured its high position in
digital sphere via automatization of postings to the widest possible network of social media
(including Instagram, Pinterest, Flipboard, Tumblr, Reddit). These steps facilitated growing
the audience and reaching more people in 2022 with timely and important information about
Ukraine.
Thus, the total reach via UCMC social media accounts (Press Center, HWAG,
UChoose) in 2022 constitutes 42, 709, 841 contacts with the audience.

3. UKRAINE IN FLAMES VIDEO PROJECT
In response to Russia’s all-out invasion of Ukraine, in March 2022, UCMC jointly with NGO
“Euro Atlantic Course” and, Analytical Centre of the Ukrainian Catholic University launched
a comprehensive video project “Ukraine in Flames” with the aim of strengthening Ukraine’s
voice in the global information agenda.
Since March 11, all UCMC departments with the help of partners and volunteers produce daily
analytical video episodes in English that provide foreign audiences with an expert overview
and discussion of the developments and processes that take place in Ukraine amid Russia’s war
and the impact of the events on the global community.
Since July 01, the video project was supported by the National Endowment for Democracy,
and UCMC will use the funding for continuation of the project with daily production of the
video episodes until June 30, 2023.
All the videos produced are available at UCMC YouTube, and also promoted on UCMC
website and across social media.
Every day we document the war, allowing the world to witness the conflict in Ukraine through
the eyes of its people with unbiased and balanced commentaries of the top experts. Since we
are working with social media – Facebook, YouTube, and Reddit – we are highly dependent
on the rules of these platforms. Since February 24, they have been hastily rewriting their rules
on hate, violence, and propaganda in Ukraine. From time to time, we face platforms’ strikes
concerning political neutrality and depictions of graphic violence, especially our episodes on
Russia’s blatant war crimes against, human rights violation, children’s rights abuse, illegal
deportations of Ukrainians to Russia, and other vulnerable issues connected to the war in
Ukraine. Our Reddit account was blocked and we never managed to restore it. We do not
violate the rules of the tech platforms but the vulnerable content is often double-checked by
the administration. U.S.-based tech companies have clearly picked a side in Ukraine; however,
some challenging situations still arise.

“Ukraine in Flames”: focus areas
The video project aims to strengthen the Ukrainian voice abroad, and argue the need for urgent
and effective assistance to Ukraine against Russia's military aggression.
In particular, the video episodes offer expert discussions that cover the following topics:
Current domestic events - attracting analyst coverage of up-to-date events and issues of
interest currently found in the news; domestic and international experts, representatives of
central political bodies and municipal councils, military, diplomats, volunteers, and
eyewitnesses are involved.
Geopolitical monitor - expert analysis of geopolitical issues, covering political, economic,
military, commodities, security & defense issues, and open-source forecasting, offering
structural benchmarks on Ukraine’s international agenda.
Reports from Ukraine’s regions - tracing the current state and history of different regions
and communities that survived Russia’s full-scale invasion, how they meet the current
challenges and overcome the consequences of the hostilities.
Fighting the fakes - detecting and refuting misinformation, combating pro-Russian narratives
with help of the fact-checkers, diplomats, historians, social scientists, and economic experts.
Interviews with leading experts - narrowly specialized interviews on specific issues.
Ukraine in Flames: audience reach
India leads the top-ten list of countries by YouTube views, the largest share falls on this country
– from 27 percent to 48 percent. South Asian and Southeast Asian region ranks the second in
the percentage terms (Indonesia, Pakistan, Philippines). Mainland Southeast Asian region

ranks the third in percentage terms (Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam). US, UK, Denmark, Poland are
the fourth key category of the countries by the views.
Most Southeast Asian states, meanwhile, condemned Russia’s invasion of Ukraine at the UN.
Although these countries have virtually no ties to Ukraine, the principle of noninterference is
sacred to them because of their own situation. The threat of Chinese hegemony, including
military intervention, looms over the region. Because of this, countries there want clear red
lines. India appears to be the only country taking both sides. New Delhi relies primarily on
weapons and military inventory from Russia.
Outside the ivory tower of international diplomacy, our core audience receives a clear message
that their region should take a more "principled" stand on Russia, shift its position at the
multilateral forums, and refrain from bolstering the Russian position and Russian economy.
Since March 11, UCMC has been non-stop producing and releasing daily episodes of “Ukraine
in Flames” video project, each dedicated to a specific issue. The videos are placed at UCMC
YouTube channel and UCMC Facebook page and promoted via the UCMC website and other
social media platforms.

L’Ukraine en flammes (French version of Ukraine in Flames project)
The Ukraine in Flames project on the UCMC YouTube channel and participation in the
English-language podcast Explaining Ukraine strengthened communication to the English-
speaking audience. At the same time, we realized the need to continue and strengthen
informational and explanatory work for the French-speaking community and offered a
communication project focused on the French-speaking audience. International Renaissance
Foundation has allocated us a grant to lead the project for our French audience.
As part of the project, a team led by UCMC works on creating a weekly French-language
podcast aimed at a French-speaking audience. The podcast is hosted on a French radio platform
or a French podcast platform. The topics are the war in Ukraine, the history of Ukraine, the
culture of Ukraine, the economy and other important topics. In addition, within the framework
of the project, a weekly French-language video is created for the UCMC YouTube channel as
part of the "Ukraine in Flames" video project. The weekly episodes cover topics of particular
importance to the French-speaking audience, with a French-speaking host, French subtitles and
editing.
Within the framework of the project, the team strengthens French-language content about
Ukraine in social media. Regular filling of the French-language social networks of UCMC
(Twitter and Facebook). Synergy with the English-language Twitter of the UCMC and partner
NGOs that communicate abroad, as well as with the official accounts of Ukrainian civil
servants, the General Staff, the Ministry of Defense, etc.
As for today, we have released 10 podcasts and 9 video episodes.

3. STRENGHTENING THE VOICE OF UKRAINE
During the past year, UCMC’s leading experts tirelessly has been taking on media
opportunities to inform domestic and international audiences about the war in Ukraine.
UCMC promptly reacted to numerous demands from foreign media including commenting,
organizing interviews, fixing, translating, explaining procedures to get accreditation
During the year, UCMC International Outreach team delivered over 500 various interviews
and commentaries - daily interviews from Monday until Friday for Canada LCN (TVA)
television, several interviews for the Canadian RDI, French BFM TV, and LN 24 (Belgium),
numerous interviews for Radio 98.5 and QUB Radio Monréal (Canada), and Euradio
(Belgium), several interviews per month for France Info, France Culture, France 24 (both in
French and English languages), and comments for the articles in French newspapers such as
Le Monde, Opinion, Hermes, as well as independent journalists.

It is worth to mention as well the joint UCMC-Internews Ukraine initiative – the podcast
“Explaining Ukraine” launched with the start of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine by the
Russian Federation. Tetyana Ogarkova co-hosts the program, and 86 podcasts were produced
in February-December 2022.
In November, Tetryana Ogarkova visited Paris and represented UCMC and advocated
Ukrainian voice in France. Number of conferences were attended by her.

war against Ukraine by the Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-
radio/2022/mar/19/the-week-in-audio-the-best-podcasts-on-the-conflict-in-ukraine

The HWAG team as well contributed to the promotion of fact-based and reliable information
about Russia-Ukrainian war and exposure of the Russia’s main disinformation tactics. In
2022, HWAG team provided 15 interviews and comments to domestic and foreign media
outlets, as BBC, Al Jazeera, Forbes India, Le Point, La Vanguardia, Byline Times, the

Valeriy Chaly, Chair of the UCMC Board, Ambassador of Ukraine to the U.S. (2015-2019),
and well-known foreign policy expert, has taken a strong stand in bringing an end to Russia’s
war in Ukraine. Ambassador Chaly’s proactive role was embodied in maintaining a persistent
media presence with the intention to influence both domestic and international target
audiences.
Ambassador Chaly’s media presence includes:
• a detailed analysis of the current situation,
• retrospective analysis,
• forecasting the outcomes of political events,
• suggesting strategic narratives.
For instance, in an interview with Radio NV (480,000 direct video views on YouTube),

interstate relations, and key risks of the Iranian drones risks for official Jerusalem. In an

promoted UCMC both in the domestic and international milieu, advanced the organization’s
agenda, and expanded its presence among other political actors. MP Klympush-Tsintsadze has
both enhanced existing trends and generated new rhetorics, which go in line with UCMC’s
patterns. MP Klympush-Tsintsadze has made a series of strong political messages, voiced at
several UCMC platforms. For instance, on the air of BBC Hartalk program, she praised
Western partners for providing Ukraine’s Armed Forces with needed weaponry faster and
faster: “Ukrainian armed forces are capably using the instruments if they have them at hand.”

MP Klympush-Tsintsadze also urged to work with European partners to limit the issuance of
visas to Russians. As a special guest of Ukraine in Flames YouTube project (Episode #120),
MP Klympush-Tsintsadze together with Canadian MP Yvan Baker and Diplomat Richard

4. OVERVIEW OF RESULTS: PRESS CENTER
UCMC’s Press Center is a unique civil society platform that allows top Ukrainian and foreign
institutions, NGOs, experts and community activists to reach the general public via live
streamed briefings and extensive mailers. Since 2014 the platform provides a continuously
working press room, complete with professional equipment for broadcasting, and provides on-
demand streaming, interpretation and press-release services.
The UCMC Press Center is one and the only in Ukraine not only because it provides full circle
media support to civil society organizations in Ukraine, strives to represent equally the diverse
points of view on the development of Ukraine, serves as a media for media platform in Ukraine
and a key contact point for international media. The UCMC Press Center also plays an
important and unique role in raising discussions on socially important, sometimes vulnerable
or neglected problems of the society, which, at the same time, are vital for Ukraine’s
development as a democratic state. This is the distinctive feature that makes UCMC unique
and valued as a hub for civil society in Ukraine.
Due to rapid deterioration of the security situation on February 24, UCMC Press Center was
forced to postpone its envisaged in-person activities and resumed its habitual work in June.
Full-fledge invasion forced the UCMC team to reconsider its plans and priorities, that is why
certain indicators are lower than expected. However, UCMC team has launched new projects,
which compensated for an inability to perform daily office work.
Media Center outreaching to audiences in Ukraine
In January, UCMC Press Center hosted events, dedicated to escalation of the situation on
Ukrainian borders, peculiarities of Territorial Defense activities, investigation into crimes
against Maidan activists, political repressions in Crimea.
In February, the greatest media interest was caused by events, dedicated to escalation on
mechanisms on getting back Crimea and Donbas, Territorial Defense issues, countering
Russian aggression and repelling Kremlin’s ultimatums.
With the start of the Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 24, 2022, UCMC
temporarily seized the operation of its Press Center based in Kyiv due to the security concerns.
Most of the staff members relocated to safer places and continued to work remotely and
established new formats of information activities that substituted the planned press-briefings.
Since the first day of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, UCMC immediately reacted to
the situation by launching the Russia Attacks Ukraine: Live Update article in English on our
website. It has provided the key updates on the developments of the Russia-Ukraine war from

the official sources of information published in chronological order for the convenience of our
readers.
Since June 02, we switched the format of the article to HWAG`s Twitter feed for optimization
of our team resources and we keep running the Live Update article for until today.
Also, on February 24, UCMC established a separate rubric “Russian war crimes in Ukraine”
to inform about atrocities committed by Russia’s troops on Ukraine’s territory and fix the
evidence so that it cannot be forgotten, distorted or whitewashed. UCMC keeps the rubric
regularly updated, the publications are available in Ukrainian and select materials translated in
English.
On June 7, 2022, the UCMC Media Center resumed its work after a forced three-month break,
caused by the hostilities. Immediately after opening, our team regained its proactive role in
revealing problems and finding solutions by engaging experts, promoting debates, and hosting
events, related to the course and consequences of the Russian full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
In June, the greatest media interest was caused by two reports of the UN representatives. One
of them was dedicated to the offenses committed by the Russian army on Ukraine’s territory,
and the second one was a regular report of the UN Monitoring Mission on Human Rights in
Ukraine
In July, a Greenpeace survey and investigation inside Chornobyl Exclusion Zone challenges
IAEA on radiation levels due to Russian troops' occupation in February-March became the
leader of media attention.
In August, the UCMC Media Center continued to provide a platform for various public
initiatives. Sustainability in the conditions of a full-scale war became a cross-cutting theme of
the month. A greater focus was placed on issues of international politics and Ukraine's
attraction of support in the face of Russian aggression.
In September, a number of crucial partnership events were also hosted – a presentation of the
report of the UN Monitoring Mission on Human Rights and the monthly presentation of the
Center for Civil Liberties are among them. We launched a new format – collective interview
of public and political figures, journalists, social activists, etc.
October was less eventful for objective reasons – harsh missile and drone attacks in Kyiv,
power blackouts. However, this did not prevent the launch of a new format of the press center
- the biweekly "Coffee with Troshchynska", a series of interviews of the editor-in-chief of
"Hromadske radio" Tetyana Troshchynska with leading experts on current topics. Pilot guests
were ex-MFA head Volodymyr Ogryzko and Mykola Beleskov, an analyst of the Come Back
Alive Foundation. The format of collective interviews continued - the head of the Institute of
Demography of the National Academy of Sciences Ella Libanova and leading members of the
team of the Ministry of Digital Transformation became guests of the press center. There was
also an expert discussion organized by us, dedicated to the situation at the Zaporizhia NPP
captured by the Russians.

In November, one more section was added – “Around the book”. Within its framework,
moderator Ihor Stambol talks with modern Ukrainian writers who write both in the genres of
fiction and non-fiction. The main topics for discussion during the events initiated by the UCMC
were the needs of medical volunteers at the current stage of the war, current challenges in
connection with the 90th anniversary of the Holodomor, and the situation with Ukraine's
European integration efforts.
In December, results of the year have been conclusively summed up, a numbed of public
