We see our publication as an example of positive decision-making journalism. While the vast majority of national and regional media focus on negative news, we look for successful stories, examples of creative decisions, and positive developments in society. Why do we do what we do? To motivate the Ukrainians to change themselves and their country for the better. We want to eradicate the stereotype of a poor, deceived, and abandoned Ukrainian. Our ideal of a citizen is an enterprising and creative master, committed to the principles of democracy and tolerance.
