Bogdan Globa is from Poltava. Life in Ukraine’s smaller cities has never been easy, even more so for someone who’s gay. Bogdan became a human rights activist and an NGO leader. He also was brave enough to take his concerns to the parliament floor where he was the first ever openly gay person to address Ukrainian deputies.

"Ukraine's Next Generation" is a series of 35 short videos about Ukrainians changing their country. It could be about saving an old movie theater or fighting corruption, about making a city more friendly or launching an online database, but it always requires someone's initiative and a group effort. The project's heroes make these changes happen instead of sitting and waiting until someone else solves every problem.
