New “UA4YOU” Portal Unveiled in Warsaw to Streamline Services for Ukraine’s Diaspora
A new information and service portal for Ukrainians in Poland, UA4YOU, has officially launched in Warsaw. The initiative aims to unite the country’s Ukrainian community, streamline access to essential services, and strengthen cultural ties with Ukraine.
The Gaze reports this, referring to Ukrinform.
The platform was unveiled during a presentation at the Embassy of Ukraine in Poland, attended by Ukrainian Ambassador Vasyl Bodnar, Executive Director of the Association for Innovative and Digital Education (AIDE) Mariia Bohuslav, as well as representatives of international and community organizations.
Ambassador Bodnar noted that Poland now hosts millions of Ukrainian citizens and dozens of community associations, which often operate independently and require better coordination.
“UA4YOU will consolidate all key information about Ukrainian organizations and their activities across Poland on a single platform,” Bodnar said. “It is an open, dynamic space that allows users to share updates and data, helping Ukrainians feel at home, stay informed, and adapt more effectively to life in Poland.”
According to Mariia Bohuslav, who leads the AIDE and coordinates the Ukrainian Educational Hubs network, the project was designed to help fragmented Ukrainian groups find one another and collaborate by region or area of interest.
The website features 12 key sections covering the most sought-after topics among Ukrainians abroad, including education, employment, mental health, healthcare, social assistance, legalization and documents, business, housing, and cultural life.
It also provides resources for public organizations and even practical tips about pets and everyday living.
Beyond practical guidance, the platform aims to preserve emotional and cultural connections with Ukraine. It includes listings of Ukrainian schools, cultural events, and initiatives across Poland.
“Most importantly, the platform gives Ukrainians a sense that their community is always nearby,” Bohuslav emphasized.
The AIDE also plans to expand the project, launching similar national platforms in the Czech Republic, Bulgaria, and Italy to serve Ukrainian communities across Europe.
As The Gaze reported earlier, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk warned that Ukraine is ready to continue fighting Russia for another two to three years, though the war could drag on for decades, and Western countries are underestimating the threat from the Kremlin.
