Who are we?
The Reanimation Package of Reforms Coalition is an association of leading organizations for implementing reforms in Ukraine.
Our goal is an independent, united, democratic, legal, solid, and authoritative Ukrainian state with a prosperous society and equal opportunities for development and self-realization for every person.
Our task is to support and promote reforms and facilitate the consolidation of civil society in Ukraine.
The Coalition operates based on political impartiality and non-affiliation with business.
Our history
In 2014, after the Revolution of Dignity, civic activists, journalists, academics, and experts united to turn the protest energy into the power of reforms in order to make the real change in Ukraine inevitable.
On March 7, 2014, we introduced the Reanimation Package of Reforms for Ukraine, launching the work on a consolidated position on the changes needed for the country, and their proper implementation. The Package included both the ready-made draft laws, sabotaged by the Yanukovych regime, and the new ones, written during the Revolution.
With the RPR’s advocacy support, revolutionary laws were adopted concerning anti-corruption, public broadcasting, restoring trust in the judicial system, higher education, and others.
In 2015, we approved the Charter of a then-informal association of experts and organizations.
On May 8, 2019, we registered the public alliance “REANIMATION PACKAGE OF REFORMS COALITION,” founded by 25 public associations.
What has our team done?
Our team has developed several editions of the Roadmap for Reforms, recommendations, and monitoring of the implementation of critical reforms for the Reform (from 2022 – Recovery) Conference of Ukraine. We are also working on a vision of reforming and rebuilding Ukraine, considering Russia’s full-scale war against Ukraine. The continuation and completion of reforms should be the basis for Ukraine’s recovery and reconstruction, its integration into the EU, as well as the Euro-Atlantic integration.
Many changes in the most essential areas have taken place on the initiative, support, or under the Coalition’s pressure.
How do we advocate for change?
Advocacy is protecting and promoting the interests of society (or its particular groups), changes in the state among critical stakeholders (interested parties). Our main principle of advocacy is its full support by all coalition members. The decisions are made by the Board after a round of discussion in case of any disagreement. That is, all our advocacy proposals and statements are supported by the members of the Coalition.
We use the following tools for advocacy:
