Perception of the Revolution of Dignity
During February 4-9, 2025, the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (KIIS) conducted its own all-Ukrainian public opinion survey "Omnibus", to which, on its own initiative, added a question about the perception of the Revolution of Dignity by Ukrainians. By the method of telephone interviews (computer-assisted telephone interviews, CATI) based on a random sample of mobile phone numbers (with random generation of phone numbers and subsequent statistical weighting) in all regions of Ukraine (the territory controlled by the Government of Ukraine), 1,000 respondents were surveyed. The survey was conducted with adult (aged 18 and older) citizens of Ukraine who, at the time of the survey, lived in the territory of Ukraine controlled by the Government of Ukraine. The sample did not include residents of territories temporarily not controlled by the Ukrainian authorities (at the same time, some of the respondents are IDPs who moved from the occupied territories), and the survey was not conducted with citizens who left abroad 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 1.3) did not exceed 4.1% for indicators close to 50%, 3.5% for indicators close to 25%, 2.5% for indicators close to 10%, 1.8% for indicators close to 5%. Under the conditions of war, in addition to the specified formal error, a certain systematic deviation is added. Factors that may affect the quality of results in "wartime" conditions were previously cited by KIIS. In general, we believe that the obtained results are still highly representative and allow a fairly reliable analysis of the public moods of the population.

Priority for the Ukrainian public: Criticizing the wrong actions of the authorities or helping to repel Russian aggression
During February 4-9, 2025, the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (KIIS) conducted its own all-Ukrainian public opinion survey "Omnibus", to which, on its own initiative, it added a question about what, in the opinion of Ukrainians, should be a priority for the Ukrainian public. By the method of telephone interviews (computer-assistedtelephoneinterviews, CATI) based on a random sample of mobile phone numbers (with random generation of phone numbers and subsequent statistical weighting) in all regions of Ukraine (the territory controlled by the Government of Ukraine), 1,000 respondents were surveyed. The survey was conducted with adult (aged 18 and older) citizens of Ukraine who, at the time of the survey, lived in the territory of Ukraine controlled by the Government of Ukraine.

Under the conditions of war, in addition to the specified formal error, a certain systematic deviation is added. Factors that may affect the quality of results in "wartime" conditions were previously cited by KIIS. In general, we believe that the obtained results are still highly representative and allow a fairly reliable analysis of the public moods of the population.

The Well-being of Ukrainians During the War: Reserved Assessments of Happiness Levels but a Strong Sense of Purpose
February 17, 2025, Kyiv – The majority of Ukrainians report low levels of happiness and life satisfaction, coupled with high levels of anxiety. However, a significant portion finds meaning and value in their activities. These are the findings of a pilot study on the personal well-being of Ukrainians conducted in June 2024 using the international methodology of the UK's Office for National Statistics (ONS). Well-being is not just an economic indicator but a multifaceted concept that includes emotional state, physical health, relationships, living conditions, work, education, and other aspects. It offers a deeper understanding of the quality of life than traditional economic indicators.

IBIF Ukraine Survey Report February 19, 2025
British Academy Funded IBIF Project Panel Survey is a two wave nationally representative survey carried out by Kyiv International Institute of Sociology. Survey fieldwork for second wave took place November 22, 2024 – January 7, 2025 (n=1600). The survey was conducted via computer-assisted telephone interviews (CATI). The second wave of the IBIF Project Panel Survey follows up with a baseline conducted in July 2023. The purpose of the survey was to reach as many 2023 survey respondents as possible and supplement the sample with new respondents (i.e. complete at least 1,600 interviews in total). Data collection started with attempt to reach 2023 survey respondents. After the database has been exhausted, the sample for new entries has been generated. The universe for the National Representative Pollconsists of all adults in age 18 years old and older, who were the residents of one of the 24 Ukrainian oblasts or city of Kyiv by February 23, 2022 (before Russian full-scale invasion). The temporarily occupied territories by February 23, 2022 (Autonomous Republic of Crimea, city of Sevastopol, and occupied parts of Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts) are excluded from the sample. The respondents resided abroad have not been caught by the survey. The respondents residing on the territories that were occupied after February 24, 2022, could have been interviewed in case there were Ukrainian mobile network working and if they felt safe to answer the questions. To meet survey aims, one-staged sample based on random generation of mobile phone numbers was developed. No quota / strata were use (except age no less than 18 years and living on Government-controlled area by February 23, 2022). Interviewers continued calling respondents and conducting interviews until 1600 completed interviews were conducted. At least 4 attempts were made to establish a contact with panel respondents and newly generated mobile phone numbers. Total, 1600 interviews have been conducted (531 with 2023 panel respondents and 1069 with newcomers). Minimum response rate for the total sample was 9.6%; cooperation rate was 15.9%. KIIS prepared weights that consider different sampling probabilities (due to different number of mobile phone numbers) and correct region-type of settlement-gender-age structure (to meet data from State statistical service). Respondents were asked where they lived by February 23, 2022, and during the weights procedures these parameters were used to adjust to the official statistics (reflecting the situation before Russian full-scale invasion). All data is weighted to the population for the analysis.
