Abstract
The article describes the prerequisites for the activation of civil society in Ukraine in the context of the Russian invasion, and reveals the approaches and digital technologies used by the activists. The authors highlight the process of empowerment of civil society, starting from the Euromaidan up until 2023 and identify the impact of the Kremlin's propagandist campaign on the civic sector of Ukraine as well as on the public opinion during 2014 – 2021 (the undeclared Russian hybrid aggression against Ukraine, which preceded the armed invasion). The paper also describes socio-political conditions for the response of civil society to Russian aggression and outlines a continuous slowdown in the processes of democracy building associated with it. Against this background, the activists also elaborated approaches to enhance the efficacy of such a response based on the widespread involvement of civil society using technology. Additionally, the authors reveal the role of technologies in the processes of democratic transformation of Ukraine, with special focus being put on a range of instruments helping public administration bodies in solving key issues that are on the agenda and require the involvement of a broad community: national defence, development of community potential, mutual aid during the war.
