Due to a lack of financial resources related to IT costs, the Foundation Sunflowers is temporarily suspending the operation of the Sunflowers App used for collecting information on international crimes and damages resulting from the war in Ukraine.

We want to assure all users and contributors that the data collected so far is securely stored and protected. The safety and integrity of this information remain our highest priority.

The Foundation continues to work tirelessly to secure the necessary funding to resume active data collection. We remain committed to documenting the truth and supporting accountability for crimes committed in Ukraine.

While the App is temporarily inactive, the Foundation continues to pursue the core mission of the Project — raising awareness about the legal and social consequences of the war in Ukraine. As part of this effort, the Foundation also engages in advocacy activities aimed at increasing public understanding of the risks and long-term impacts of armed conflicts.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

Dr Andriy Kosylo, a board member of Sunflowers, was a guest on the program “Ukrainian Focus” on Slawa TV [https://slawa.tv], dedicated to the issue of holding perpetrators of international crimes committed in Ukraine accountable. During the interview, Dr Kosylo emphasized, among other things, the importance of properly documenting information that can be used as evidence in future legal proceedings, including before international tribunals.

Dr Kosylo also outlined Sunflowers’ efforts, carried out in cooperation with the Legal Aid Coordination Centre of the Polish National Bar of Legal Advisers [https://legalaidpoland.org], aimed at providing legal assistance to Ukrainian citizens when submitting claims to the recently launched Council of Europe Register of Damage (RD4U) [https://rd4u.coe.int/en/].

67 civil society organizations, including Foundation Sunflowers, call on the EU (incl HRVP @kajakallas) to defend the International Criminal Court against escalating attacks on its mandate & mission.

Justice for victims of the world’s worst crimes is at stake. The EU must act now.
