Home - UST Ukraine Support Team

About us

The unprovoked war of the russian federation against Ukraine has created a huge number of problems for Ukraine, the solution of which requires years and significant financial and human resources. However, according to the basic rule of economics, the resource is always limited. And this means that it must be used and directed as rationally and efficiently as possible to solve the most pressing problems.

For this reason the Ukraine Support Team (UST) was launched – a coalition of NGO’s, think tanks, national and regional teams, the purpose of which is to help communities rebuild life in regions affected by the war.

UST uses its own SMART prioritization methodology of needs asessment to select projects and form comprehensive assessments and solutions that promote the efficient use of resources to help rebuild affected regions and communities.
