Dialogue, openness and transparency are key features of an open democracy. Media and the civil society are important actors, but in order for them to perform their democratic functions government must understand the different roles they have and provide services and information.

The aim of Ukraine Public Dialogue is to improve public communication and the dialogue between the state, media, civil society and the public by creating a framework and increasing the capacity of key staff working with public communication at Ukraine’s executive government authorities.

The Ukraine Public Dialogue project is financed by the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida). The project is a part of the Swedish efforts to support the development of democracy in Ukraine by establishing a better understanding among key staff how public communications function in a democratic market economy. Swedish counterpart is Global Reporting
