UWC launches a global campaign for Ukrainian children

Register your event. Take action. Send a unified global message.

The Ukrainian World Congress (UWC), together with its member organizations and partners worldwide, has launched the global campaign Stand With Ukraine: Protect future generations, marking four years since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

This campaign calls the world to act against one of the most horrific crimes of this war: the systematic abduction and forced deportation of Ukrainian children. This is not collateral damage. It is a deliberate strategy to erase Ukrainian identity and steal the nation’s future. These are stolen children.

The message of the campaign is unequivocal: the return of Ukrainian children is non-negotiable. There can be no just or lasting peace while children remain in captivity. Peace means children are home.

UWC is calling on Ukrainian communities, civil society organizations, and international partners everywhere to take visible action now, organize public events, solidarity actions, advocacy initiatives, and demonstrations, and register them on the campaign’s global events map. Every registered action strengthens global pressure on governments and international institutions, amplifies media attention, and proves that the world is united in demanding justice for Ukrainian children.

“The abduction of Ukrainian children is a crime with no statute of limitations,” said UWC President Paul Grod. “The world must reject any so-called ‘peace’ that leaves Ukrainian children in Russian captivity. Our responsibility is to act together, speak clearly, and demand justice. Protecting Ukrainian children means protecting the future of Ukraine, and the democratic world.”

Through Stand With Ukraine: Protect future generations, UWC is building a sustained, coordinated global movement strengthening international advocacy, supporting Ukraine’s defenders, and documenting worldwide solidarity through public actions and media coverage. Each event registered on the world map becomes part of a single, unmistakable global demand: Bring the children home.

UWC urges communities and partners in every country to organize an action, register it on the global map, and help make this crime impossible for the world to ignore.
