One of the key achievements of the All-Ukrainian Mental Health Program “How Are You?” is the growing number of Ukrainians who have changed their attitude toward mental health. First Lady of Ukraine Olena Zelenska spoke about this in the final episode of “In Simple Terms” podcast by The Village.

Ukraine has moved the date of Children’s Day to November 20 to mark it together with the international community – on World Children’s Day. This is stated in Presidential Decree № 355/2025, signed today by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

The challenges of returning, rehabilitating, and reintegrating Ukrainian children who have been illegally deported or forcibly transferred to Russia were discussed during an event titled “Careful, Fragile: Childhood, War, Occupation, Deportation”, held in Kyiv.

Advisor to the Head of the Presidential Office Yuriy Katsion held a meeting with representatives of the government, banking sector, and non-governmental organizations to discuss prospects for implementing sustainable development financing mechanisms in Ukraine. Yuriy Katsion noted that although the full-scale Russian invasion has slowed the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), it has not stopped the process.

The parties discussed diplomatic efforts to achieve a just and lasting peace, as well as preparations for negotiations with the Russian side.

Words do not work with Moscow. Even the so-called “memorandum,” which they promised and allegedly spent over a week preparing – no one has seen it yet. It has not been shared with Ukraine. They are doing everything to ensure the meetings are meaningless. And that is yet another reason why there should be sufficient sanctions, sufficient pressure on Russia.

The discussion focused on key issues of bilateral and multilateral cooperation. Ihor Zhovkva informed the diplomats about the outcomes of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s visit to Germany, particularly the agreements reached regarding security, defense, and political support for Ukraine.
