The First National PULSE Consortium Is Among Ukraine’s Top Three Partnerships

June 24, 2026

The National PULSE Consortium received an award in the Partnership of the Year category at the nationwide Golden Flipchart competition, taking the second place among Ukraine’s leading civil society partnerships.

The award ceremony took place on 19 June during the Resilience Shapes the Future Forum in Ternopil. The event brought together civil society leaders, charitable organisations, and activists from across Ukraine to discuss the future of civil society amid the war.

Deputy Coordinator of the PULSE Consortium

“This is the first award PULSE has received as a consortium, rather than as an individual organisation or project. It is especially meaningful that we have received it in the Partnership category. There is a well-known saying: ‘If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together’. This is exactly how PULSE works”

This recognition reflects the collective work of all PULSE Consortium partners: Right to Protection, Caritas Ukraine, Proliska Humanitarian Mission, the League of the Strong, The HALO Trust Ukraine, Helping to Leave, Girls NGO, and Voices of Children.

It is also a recognition of the PULSE approach: bringing together organisations’ expertise, resources, and experience for a shared goal. Through this cooperation, in just the first six months of the Consortium’s work, more than 100,000 people received support, and 46 civil society organisations across Ukraine were awarded microgrants.

We are grateful to everyone who has become part of this shared story: our Consortium partners, subgrantees, teams working in hromadas every day, and the people who trust us and turn to us for support. This recognition belongs to everyone who has contributed to PULSE. After all, the strength of a partnership is measured not by awards, but by the changes we create together.
