UNV was established in Ukraine in 1993 in an effort to contribute to the international commitment to build up the Government's democratic policies and civic engagement, as well as to tap, together with UNDP, into the potential to work with civil society in promoting volunteering for development.

From 1993 onwards, the UNV programme in Ukraine has posted 89 UNV volunteers (29 women and 60 men) including 69 - internationally.

As of August 2008, 7 UNV volunteers are serving in Ukraine: 5 women and 2 men, with 4 of them being International volunteers. They are involved in different development projects:
