The Kyiv Independent
The Kyiv Independent is Ukraine's fastest-growing English-language media outlet, founded in November 2021 by journalists committed to press freedom. It operates as a private limited company registered in London and has become a vital source of news, especially following Russia's full-scale invasion in February 2022. The organization focuses on investigative journalism, political analysis, and war coverage, with a team that remains in Ukraine to provide firsthand reporting. The Kyiv Independent produces a variety of multimedia content, including documentaries, daily newsletters, and podcasts like "Ukraine Without Hype." It also runs an online store selling branded merchandise to support its journalism efforts. The outlet is funded through reader contributions, grants, and merchandise sales, ensuring its editorial independence. With a dedicated war crimes investigation unit established in March 2023, the Kyiv Independent continues to expand its offerings while maintaining a commitment to high-quality reporting.
