Abstract: The article examines the ability of civic initiatives to form new social connections and propose innovative solutions in response to challenges arising in wartime conditions. In the current crisis situation caused by the war in Ukraine, the role of civil society becomes particularly important, as it is through community activism that effective ways to overcome difficulties can be found. Supporting such initiatives is critically important for strengthening civil society and ensuring resilience in times of crisis. The article also emphasizes that the social connections formed during the implementation of civic initiatives and projects contribute not only to solving urgent problems but also to fostering trust and cooperation among community members. The conclusions of this work can serve as a basis for developing strategies to support civic engagement, which, in turn, will promote positive social changes in society.
