The Ukrainian Institute of Sociological Research “Razumkov Center” has conducted another opinion poll on the trust of Ukrainians in public institutions operating in the country. According to the published data, the Church, as a set of religious organizations, is less trusted than the Armed Forces of Ukraine and volunteer organizations. The report was published on the website of the Razumkov Center.

According to the published data, the picture of Ukrainians’ trust in public institutions is as follows: Armed Forces of Ukraine (93.5%), State Emergency Service (85.5%), Volunteer units (85.5%), Volunteer organizations (80%), National Guard (79%), State Border Guard Service (74%), Church (65%).

Earlier, we reported that interest in religion among young people aged 18 to 24 has sharply declined in Ukraine. As of 2024, only 52% of Ukrainians in this age group are interested in religion, which is almost a third less than older people.
