Social mission

The pandemic, and then the full-scale invasion, became periods of total uncertainty. During this time, we took on the social mission to track and explain historical changes using data and insights. Both to the society within the country and to the international audience.

Since then, every tenth (on average) Gradus study is conducted using our own resources. Data is available to everyone — this is our contribution to the development of Ukrainian society and economy. We study changes, record dynamics, publish open reports. We believe that progress is possible in times of severe trials that our country has been experiencing in recent years.
