The Center for Civic Education “Almenda” was established in 2011 in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, Yalta.
The idea of creating the organisation was
to increase education about the culture of democracy, the culture of peace, human rights and media literacy among educators and young people of Crimea and Ukraine.
In 2014 the organisation was forced to leave Crimea because of russian occupation and start activities in the following areas:
In February 2022, Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
With the beginning of full-scale aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, the organisation records and documents data on six grave violations committed against children in the conditions of armed conflict.
We joined “Ukraine 5 AM Coalition“, which includes public organizations and individual experts who have united to protect victims of armed aggression in Ukraine and to bring to justice the top leadership of the Russian Federation and the direct perpetrators of war crimes and crimes against humanity.
