Do you know how to communicate better? Now we do! 💡

June 20, 2025

Ukraine2Power had the privilege of participating in the IABC’s Gift of Communication program, hosted at Quadriga Media Berlin GmbH. This initiative, organized by IABC EMENA and supported by Schwarz Gruppe, connected senior communication professionals with NGOs for pro-bono consultations.

Our communications specialist, Dr. Liudmyla Kvirenko, joined a session with experienced mentors to discuss the challenges we face as a young NGO with limited resources. At Ukraine2Power, our funding is focused on what matters most—delivering sustainable energy solutions to Ukrainian hospitals, children facilities, and municipalities. That often leaves little room for investing in professional communications.

But yesterday, we gained valuable insights and practical advice on how to tell our story more effectively—even on a shoestring budget. Together, we explored our key communication channels and identified ways to strengthen our storytelling and outreach.

✨ Many thanks to Tina Rodriguez, Marit van Kuijk, @Sarah B., Olena Androshchuk and Alina Nosenko for your time, tailored advice, and for helping us find better ways to communicate Ukrainian stories.

🙏 Special thanks to Olha Boiko and Professor Ana ADI for organizing and moderating this meaningful event.

We invite everyone to follow our journey here on LinkedIn!
