Nödåtgärder och stöd till tankesmedjors motståndskraft 2022-2023 Emergency Response and Think Tanks Resilience Support 2022-2023 Support to Ukrainian think tanks seeks to contribute to Ukraine’s transformation into a successful, inclusive and accountable European democracy by creating conditions for independent public policy institutions to grow organizationally, strengthening the voice of independent think tanks in the policy process, making their output relevant for key stakeholder groups in the Ukrainian society, and enabling them to make a stronger impact on policy-making.

With the beginning of the war and full change of the playing field, the independent think tanks are facing (or will face in the future) the need to significantly refocus or adjust their activities to the new reality. They need to revisit their priorities, while maintaining contacts with their key stakeholders. The think tanks also need resources for rebuilding their teams, adjusting operations and policies, designing short- and medium-term solutions and products, and coping with stress.

A challenge today is maintaining the think tanks operational amid the high risk that think tanks may lose financing and be unable to keep their core teams, which in turn affect their capacity to remain relevant and serve their missions Stöd till ukrainska tankesmedjor strävar efter att bidra till Ukrainas omvandling till en framgångsrik, inkluderande och ansvarsfull europeisk demokrati genom att skapa förutsättningar för oberoende offentliga politiska institutioner att växa organisatoriskt, stärka de oberoende tankesmedjornas röst i policyprocessen och göra deras resultat relevant för nyckel intressentgrupper i det ukrainska samhället och göra det möjligt för dem att göra en starkare inverkan på beslutsfattandet.

Med början av kriget och fullständig förändring av spelplanen står de oberoende tankesmedjorna inför (eller kommer att möta i framtiden) behovet av att avsevärt omfokusera eller anpassa sin verksamhet till den nya verkligheten. De måste se över sina prioriteringar, samtidigt som de upprätthåller kontakter med sina viktigaste intressenter. Tankesmedjorna behöver också resurser för att återuppbygga sina team, anpassa verksamhet och policyer, designa kort- och medellångsiktiga lösningar och produkter och hantera stress.

En utmaning idag är att upprätthålla tankesmedjorna i drift mitt i den höga risken att tankesmedjor kan förlora finansiering och inte kunna behålla sina kärnteam, vilket i sin tur påverkar deras förmåga att förbli relevanta och utföra sina uppdrag.
