Ukraine

IMS is actively involved in Ukraine, assisting media actors in ensuring protection and regulative measures in accordance with international standards. Since the Orange revolution in 2004, media in Ukraine has seen great improvements for press freedom. However, challenges still persist such as an inadequate legislative framework which does not guarantee press freedom. Furthermore, the ownership structure of national broadcast and print media remains widely controlled by oligarchs and politicians.
