“Not Alone” is one of the projects selected within the third annual micro‑grant support program for Ukrainian documentarians implemented by UAPP. The goal of the program is to support authors who continue to document the experience of a country resisting aggression and to create visual evidence of events that define the history of contemporary Ukraine. The program is carried out with the support of the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Ukraine.

On the eve of Easter, Russian forces deliberately struck peaceful towns and villages. The enemy targeted energy infrastructure, administrative buildings during working hours, crowded markets, public transport, cultural and historical landmarks, and the homes of ordinary Ukrainians. Odesa, Nikopol, and Kramatorsk were in mourning for the dead. In Nikopol — a city of about 40,000 residents — more than 100 people have been killed or injured since the beginning of April, according to Ukrainska Pravda. Life. Civilian casualties are also high in Kherson, which remains under constant threat from shelling and remote mining.The scale of destruction to residential areas is captured in photo reports from Odesa, Kharkiv, Sumy, Kherson, and Kramatorsk.

The micro‑grant program of the Ukrainian Association of Professional Photographers, implemented with the support of the International Press Institute, offers Ukrainian documentarians an opportunity to bring their ideas to life. In 2025, eight photographers joined the program and created their own projects — reflections, documents, and impressions of life during the full‑scale Russian‑Ukrainian war. The photo album “2025” is a visual memory you can quite literally feel in your hands.

In memory of the victims — and in the name of justice — we recall how Ukrainian and international documentarians, along with human rights organizations, disproved Russian disinformation about the missile strike on the Kramatorsk railway station on April 8, 2022. On that day, a Russian missile armed with cluster munitions turned a crowded train station into a battlefield, cutting short the lives of people who were trying to flee the war.

Фотоальбом «2025» — це підсумкове друковане видання, яке зібрало результати мікрогрантової програми Української асоціації професійних фотографів (UAPP), реалізованої за підтримки International Press Institute.
