Ukrainian Courage Becomes a Brand, Big Business Join #BRAVEUKRAINE Movement

   Dozens of Ukrainian brands and companies join the #BRAVEUKRAINE movement. Meanwhile, billboards "Be brave like Ukraine" are seen on the streets in Canada, Poland, Germany, Italy, Austria, Britain, Spain, the US and other countries

   Ukrainians are a nation of daredevils. When russia started its full-scale war against Ukraine and the strong resistance of Ukrainians against occupiers, the world heard the call "Be brave like Ukraine", be courageous like Ukraine.

   Volodymyr Zelenskyy believes that Ukrainians have always been the bravest in the world. According to him, this is the brand of our people.

   "We have always been brave, the bravest in the world, I am sure of that. If everyone in the world had at least 10% of the courage we Ukrainians have, there would be no danger to international law. There is no danger to the freedom of nations. "We will spread our courage. We will launch a special global campaign to teach the world to be not just a little, but to be as brave as we Ukrainians are," the president said in a video address on April 7.

   "Ukrainians in the world have already been identified as a nation of brave people. Our people go to rallies against the Russian occupiers and stop tanks without weapons in their hands. Specialists continue to work even under fire and sirens – doctors, rescuers, utilities, vendors, drivers, and pharmacists. IT specialists continue to support the country's brand while sitting with a laptop in bomb shelters. It's really impressive"‎, — the Minister of Digital Transformation Mikhaylo Fedorov stressed.

  Now it is important for Ukrainians not to lose the courage of the first weeks of the war, and the internal campaign is aimed at just that. The major objective of the international campaign is to share courage with the world and create an image of a country where brave people, bold businesses and bold ideas live.

   "It was important for us to find a message that will be effective now and in the future. What will resonate better, give strength to all, and raise the fighting spirit? Undoubtedly, this is Ukrainian courage. Without it, there will be no freedom, no country… And today Ukraine's courage is unprecedented: the courage of the military, the courage of ordinary people, the courage of our cities. No country in the world is ready to fight Russia. And Ukraine is fighting and fighting successfully. Now the whole world admires Ukrainian courage. This is our DNA, our national resource. Now everyone knows that the courage is to be Ukraine"‎, — said Banda's agency's founder Pavel Vrzheshch.

   For millions of people, Ukraine is already associated with courage and bravery. And dozens of Ukrainian companies are taking part in the #BRAVEUKRAINE movement to show what courage means for them.
