Hromadske

hromadske is a non-profit, non-governmental multimedia organisation operating across various platforms. hromadske's website, hromadske.ua, receives over 5 million monthly views, while social media reach exceeds 23 million.

It was founded on 22 November 2013 to independently and impartially communicate relevant information to the public through all available channels. The organisation emerged in response to President Yanukovych's refusal to sign the EU Association Agreement and the subsequent Euromaidan protests.

It provides clear and objective reporting on events in Ukraine and around the world. hromadske’s mission is to foster the growth of an active and informed citizenry by explaining, illustrating, and conveying in clear and accessible terms what is truly happening in society, with the goal of consolidating it around a pro-Ukrainian stance and democratic values.

hromadske provides in-depth coverage of key social and political developments. hromadske has been documenting the war in Ukraine for 11 years, with many Ukrainian cities, homes, and lives now existing only through hromadske’s footage. In 2023, it launched dedicated investigations into war crimes and corruption. Additionally, it produces podcasts on a wide range of topics, further expanding its reach and impact.

The organisation is funded by grant programs and donors, advertising revenue, as well as income from production and licensing agreements with other broadcasters. Its videos are widely used in documentaries and media reports globally.

hromadske is committed to financial transparency and is one of the few media outlets in Ukraine that publicly shares its financial reports and annual independent audits. For several consecutive years, it has been included in the "White Media" ranking by the Institute of Mass Information, recognizing its high standards of journalism.

In 2021, hromadske was named among Ukraine’s most financially transparent media outlets, according to a study by the Institute of Mass Information.
