A new TV channel “Front” has a scientific and educational format. The production of the content of the channel will be focused on interesting and primarily useful topics, which are vital to many people in the current war conditions.

The channel will focus on military topics, but it will not cover events from the combat zone. Among the planned projects – a series of programs about Western and domestic weapons, starting with small arms and ending with heavy missile weapons. Also about military conflicts and their role in history. It is also planned to pay attention to tactical medicine and psychological rehabilitation. A separate number of programs about tactical equipment and clothing will be created. There also will be programs with instructors that focus on tactical military training.
“Front” plans to produce its own programs.
“Our goal is to have 100 percent of our own product, as, for example, on the TV channel “Trofey”, Andriy Medvyed notes.
Regarding the sources of monetization and the commercial model, Medvyed noted that all TV channels of group of companies “Kontinent TV” (“Trofey”, “Terra”, “Nauka”, “Fauna”, “6 Sotok”) are monetized from the funds received from cable, OTT, IPTV, DTH networks and advertising integration in the form of product placement.
TV channel “Front” will be monetized according to the same model.

In my previous column, I wrote about social innovations in Ukraine. Those innovations are part of civic resilience and the democratization of security, which Europe is paying close attention to right now.

In 2025, the deadliest year yet for civilians, Ukraine’s three largest charitable foundations raised a record 105.9 billion hryvnias. It is more than the years 2022–2024 combined. According to the UN, humanitarian aid in Ukraine was delivered by more than 450 organisations, reaching five million people over the course of the year. Civic foundations hold licences to purchase lethal weapons, which is a function states have monopolised for centuries. These record sums were underwritten by international government grants, which means foreign states now channel billions directly through Ukrainian civic funds, bypassing inter-state channels. It is hard to imagine a stronger institutional trust in civil society.
