I confess, I am always uneasy about this phrase - I hear so much condemnation in it. Although this is not the case. Among my peers there are so many strong, responsible, fearless people who work without sparing themselves, who truly believe in change in Ukraine and strive to create it themselves. But disputes with the older generation sometimes lacked iron arguments.

Now they are - in specific figures of the national sociological survey "What Ukrainians know and think about human rights." Here you can see how young people aged 18-29 differ from other age groups - 30-54 years and 55 years and older.

Boldness to social benefits

The first thing that catches the eye, young people, although similar in mood to the elders, but in some respects is already significantly different from them.

Thus, according to the survey, young Ukrainians consider freedom to be the most important value. This is said by 84% of respondents. For comparison, among the older population, freedom is valued by 80% of Ukrainians in the age group of 30-54 and slightly less (77%) by members of the 55 plus generation.

The top 10 priority rights of young Ukrainians are typical.

Significantly, they are less inclined to expect social benefits from the state, but it is important for them to manage their own destiny. This is stated by half of the surveyed young people (as opposed to 45% and 40% of respondents from older age groups).

Also, for a third of young people (35%), respect for private and family life is one of the most important human rights (which is five percent more than older respondents). In addition, almost every fifth young Ukrainian considers the right to marriage and equality in marriage to be the most important - for the rest this figure is slightly lower.
