WORLD NO TOBACCO DAY 2023: PROGRESS OF UKRAINE AND SURVEY RESULTS

World No Tobacco Day, celebrated annually on May 31, is a global platform to raise awareness of the dangers of tobacco use and promote efforts to stop smoking. The Ministry of Health of Ukraine, the Public Health Center of the Ministry of Health together with the World Health Organization (WHO) emphasize the importance of this day and inform about the latest developments in tobacco control.

In January 2022, before the full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation, Ukraine introduced comprehensive legislative measures to regulate both traditional and newer tobacco and nicotine products. The country's commitment to tobacco control remains steadfast despite the ongoing conflict.

To assess the impact of these measures and understand changes in tobacco use during the war, WHO, in collaboration with the Ministry of Health of Ukraine and the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (KIIS), conducted a national survey on tobacco use among adults (18+) in April 2023.

The thirteenth Sakharov International Conference on "How to achieve lasting peace? Ukraine and the world after the ceasefire"

The thirteenth Sakharov International Conference on "How to achieve lasting peace? Ukraine and the world after the ceasefire" was held on May 18-19, 2023 in Vilnius. This conference set the task of considering the difficult issues that Ukraine will face after the end of the war.

The impact of the conflict in Ukraine was devastating: the destruction of infrastructure, an economic crisis, the largest refugee crisis in Europe since World War II, tens of thousands of dead and hundreds of thousands of people who suffered from the consequences of the war. Now, experts have come together to discuss the complex challenges of rebuilding and the path to a sustainable future.

Although the war is far from ending quickly, many problems are already arising and it is important to prepare for the post-war period and form a better future. This conference provided an opportunity for a focused dialogue where key stakeholders were able to exchange ideas, insights and solutions.  Now, based on the work of experts, recommendations are being prepared for the government and civil society of Ukraine.

The conference's multi-faceted program covered topics such as democracy and the rule of law, recovery and ecology, trauma, memory and healing, national reconciliation and much more.

The conference organizers, led by Robert van Voren (executive director of the Andrii Sakharov Research Center and executive director of FGIP), managed to gather a very strong group of experts. From the Ukrainian side, Yaroslav Hrytsak, Andrii Dlygach, Olha Aivazovska, Myroslav Marynovych, Oleksandra Matviichuk, Valerii Pekar, Iryna Pinchuk, Tetiana Pechonchuk and others took part.  There were also representatives of European structures and ministries of some EU countries and scientists from Great Britain, Germany, France, Lithuania, the Netherlands and other countries. For example, Timothy Garton Ashe (United Kingdom), professor of European studies at the University of Oxford, Anna-Karin Kroksstad, deputy head of the Department for Ukraine at the European External Action Service, Eduard Klein - editor of the German journal Ukraine-Analysen and researcher at the Department of East European Researches at the University of Bremen and many others.

INTERPERSONAL POLITICAL-PSYCHOLOGICAL TENSION OF THE POPULATION OF UKRAINE

From February 22 to March 6, 2023, the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (KIIS) conducted its own all-Ukrainian public opinion survey "Omnibus". Bythemethodofcomputer-assistedtelephoneinterviews (CATI) based on a random sample of mobile phone numbers (with random generation of phone numbers and subsequent statistical weighting), 985 respondents living in all regions of Ukraine (except the Autonomous Republic of Crimea) were interviewed. The survey was conducted with adult (aged 18 and older) citizens of Ukraine who, at the time of the survey, lived on the territory of Ukraine (within the boundaries controlled by the authorities of Ukraine until February 24, 2022). The sample did not include residents of territories that were not temporarily controlled by the authorities of Ukraine until February 24, 2022 (AR of Crimea, the city of Sevastopol, certain districts of the Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts), and the survey was not conducted with citizens who left the country after February 24, 2022.

Formally, under normal circumstances, the statistical error of a sample of 985 respondents (first wave) (with a probability of 0.95 and taking into account a design effect of 1.1) did not exceed 3.4% for indicators close to 50%, 3.0% for indicators , close to 25%, 2.1% - for indicators close to 10%, 1.5% - for indicators close to 5%.

Under conditions of war, in addition to the specified formal error, a certain systematic deviation is added. In particular, if back in May, among all the respondents we interviewed, 2.5-4% lived in the territories occupied after February 24 (and this corresponded to the percentage of those who live there, because the generation of telephone numbers was random), now, due to the occupiers turning off the telephone connection, we managed to interview only 1 respondent (out of 985), who currently lives in the occupied settlements. It is important to note that although the views of the respondents who lived in the occupation were somewhat different, the general trends were quite similar. That is, the impossibility of interviewing such respondents does not significantly affect the quality of the results. There are other factors that can affect the quality of results in "wartime" conditions (see Annex 2).

In general, we believe that the obtained results are still highly representative and allow a fairly reliable analysis of public moods of the population.

ATTITUDE OF UKRAINIANS TO THE HOLIDAYS OF MAY 1 (LABOR DAY) AND MAY 9 (VICTORY DAY)

During February 14-22, 2023, the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (KIIS) conducted its own all-Ukrainian public opinion survey "Omnibus". By the method of computer-assisted telephone interviews (CATI) based on a random sample of mobile phone numbers (with random generation of phone numbers and subsequent statistical weighting), 2,002 respondents living in all regions of Ukraine (except the Autonomous Republic of Crimea) were interviewed. The survey was conducted with adult (aged 18 and older) citizens of Ukraine who, at the time of the survey, lived on the territory of Ukraine (within the boundaries controlled by the authorities of Ukraine until February 24, 2022). The sample did not include residents of territories that were not temporarily controlled by the authorities of Ukraine until February 24, 2022 (AR of Crimea, the city of Sevastopol, certain districts of the Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts), and the survey was not conducted with citizens who left the country after February 24, 2022.

Formally, under normal circumstances, the statistical error of such a sample (with a probability of 0.95 and taking into account the design effect of 1.1) did not exceed 2.4% for indicators close to 50%, 2.1% for indicators close to 25%, 1.5% - for indicators close to 10%, 1.1% - for indicators close to 5%.
