As part of the project "Side by Side: I Know. I Act. I am Protected," implemented by the Center for Gender Culture of the V. Dahl East Ukrainian National University in partnership with the Slavic Heart Charitable Foundation with financial support from the Kvinna till Kvinna Foundation, a specialized chat bot for Telegram has been developed - @ safestep_ukrbot.

The main purpose of the SafeStep chatbot is to provide prompt and confidential assistance to women experiencing domestic or gender-based violence. The tool contains clear step-by-step self-help algorithms, hotline contacts, and practical advice on ensuring your own safety at a critical moment.

A chatbot is a convenient digital solution that allows you to receive initial support and an action algorithm instantly, from anywhere.
