Foundation Sunflowers Extends Strategic Partnership with the National Chamber of Legal Advisers (KIRP)

We are pleased and proud to announce that the cooperation between the Foundation Sunflowers and the National Chamber of Legal Advisers (KIRP), which has been our official Partner since 2024, has been extended! 
 
KIRP is a nationwide professional self-government of legal advisers:
– as a community of all legal advisers, it acts for the benefit of individual and all citizens, realising the principle of social justice concerning access to legal aid,
– enhances respect for legalism by public authorities,
– upholds that public authorities act on the basis and within the law. 
For these reasons, KIRP acts in the public interest and for its protection. 
 
Foundation Sunflowers, which implements Project Sunflowers, supports international and national justice authorities in the prosecution and adjudication of the gravest crimes committed in Ukraine and endeavours to ensure that the damage caused during the ongoing war there is repaired. The Foundation works for the benefit of the international community.  
 
Since 2023, legal counsels have participated, among others, in open webinars organised by the Foundation. In addition, the National Chamber of Legal Advisers supported the Foundation in November 2024 in organising a conference on accountability for international crimes committed in Ukraine and joint efforts to restore justice, and representatives of the legal advisers’ self-government were present at both the conference and the workshop on universal jurisdiction.
