Starting from scratch in January 2014 as a citizen media initiative, with no starting capital, Euromaidan Press is now #4 in terms of readership among English-language media about Ukraine, as well as being a well-known action hub connecting pro-Ukrainian activists worldwide.
Alya Shandra is Editor-in-chief at Euro Maidan Press. She has a background in environmental science and NGOs. During the Euromaidan revolution Alya Shandra launched an indy-media outlet called Euromaidan Press, and that project was fuelled by her interest in how to help Ukraine permanently move beyond being a post-communist post-colony country and evolve into becoming a free and democratic society that tackles corruption and nepotism.
