Ukraine Action Summit

Members of Ukrainians of Colorado traveled to Washington D.C. this past weekend to advocate for Ukraine at an event called “Ukraine Action Summit”.

Led by The American Coalition for Ukraine (@americancoalitionforukraine), the theme for this Summit is that “PEOPLE’S LIVES ARE NOT POLITICS.”

They aim to foster a sense of unity that they hope will bring to our relationships under the umbrella of the Coalition, and an opportunity to convey our needs to elected officials.

The summit involves:

  • Hearing subject-matter experts discuss Ukraine-specific insights & strategies as part of our panels & conference programming

  • Having more time and a specific space allocated for networking with other members of the Coalition to find synergies & build connections among organizations.

  • Spending a day dedicated to advocacy training, including a deep dive into local advocacy, relevant legal tips, and a better understanding of media engagement.

  • Engaging in two days of advocacy on the Hill with the full support of our dedicated team.

  • Making memories, find new friends, and create maximum impact by advocating for Ukraine.

  • Before the summit, all attendees are invited to take basic advocacy training powered by the Coalition Advocacy Committee and KLYCH platform.

Thank you to @andrew_matya , @yana229085 , @kryukovai , @boretsky , and @ron_actual, and all others, for traveling to represent our organization and mission.

Huge thank you and shout out to members of our community for traveling to Washington D.C. for the Ukraine Action Summit event, and advocating for Ukraine!
