Recently, the National Forum of the Charitable Sector of Ukraine, BRIDGE 2025, was held in Kyiv. This is a platform that brings together experts to exchange experiences, develop joint approaches, and implement new standards of transparency, efficiency, and development of the Ukrainian humanitarian sector.
During the Forum, topics on humanitarian aid, social support, coordination of evacuation and provision of emergency assistance in frontline areas, financing of local organizations, and cooperation with donors were discussed.
As part of the panel discussion “Private Sector – How Not to Ask for Money from Business”, Valeriy Siroshtan, CEO of RENOME SMART, emphasized that the social responsibility of business is not only about paying taxes and donating. It is also about regular support for those in need.
During the Forum, Executive Director of the Humanitarian Coordination Center Bohdan Matveyev presented new features of the BRIDGE 2.0 platform – a tool for increasing transparency, efficiency, and coordination of humanitarian response in Ukraine. The web platform was created by the RENOME SMART R&D Department. BRIDGE 2.0 enables communities and non-profit organizations to receive support, resources, and funding from donors in a transparent and prompt way.
