Mission & Goals
Association Action Ukraine-EU, registered in 2025, is a non-profit civil society organisation based in Belgium. Its purpose is to support Ukraine through humanitarian initiatives and to strengthen cooperation between Ukraine and the European Union. Initially focused on assistance to displaced persons in Belgium and humanitarian aid to Ukraine, the Association is progressively developing activities aimed at articulating and advocating Ukrainian interests at EU level. It intends to facilitate dialogue between experts, public authorities and international institutions on Ukraine’s economic recovery and reform process, including through research, training, public sectoral events and policy discussions, including at the European Parliament. The Association has so far supported selected events and participated in Horizon programme calls.
EU Legislative Interests

Communication Activities
Association Action Ukraine-EU is a small civil society organisation registered in 2025. Its communication activities in relation to EU policies on climate action, urban development, decentralisation and EU enlargement have so far been limited and primarily supportive in nature. The Association has supported the organisation and outreach of public events in Brussels organised by Ukrainian civil society organisations, including Ukrainian Voices, Ukrainian Prism, and Promote Ukraine, such as demonstrations, conferences and round tables addressing Ukraine’s recovery, European integration and reform priorities. It has also provided community support to selected events organised by Ukrainian institutions at the European Parliament related to EU-Ukraine cooperation and reconstruction. In addition, the Association has participated in the preparation and submission of project proposals under the European Union Horizon Europe programme, including calls linked to the New European Bauhaus initiative. At the time of registration, the evaluation results of these proposals are still pending. No independent large-scale campaigns have been conducted to date.
