Sphere (Women's Association)

Sphere (Жіноча асоціація «Сфера») is a Kharkiv-based LGBTQ+ and feminist organisation, started as an initiative group in 2006 and registered as an NGO in 2008. It organises KharkivPride and runs the PrideHub community space, offering psychological, legal and peer support to LGBTQ+ people and women in the region. Since Russia's full-scale invasion in 2022 it has also worked as a humanitarian group, providing financial and psychological aid, evacuation help and support for displaced LGBTQ+ Ukrainians. For safety reasons it does not publish an office address. Make contact through sphere.org.ua or its social channels, and remember that Kharkiv remains under regular attack.
