What unites the people of the Netherlands and Ukraine?

More than you might think. It’s a bond built on partnership, belief in victory, and a shared drive to make the impossible possible.

Together, Dignitas and the Dutch foundation Protect Ukraine have formed a powerful alliance to support Ukrainian defenders on the battlefield. Cutting-edge technology, smart solutions, and the unwavering bravery of Ukrainian soldiers come together to secure freedom.

Our joint project equips frontline units with advanced tools and drone operator training — helping troops complete missions more effectively while reducing risks to their lives. With Protect Ukraine’s support, we deliver vital equipment and prepare skilled specialists who give Ukraine the edge in battle.

Protect Ukraine and Dignitas

What does this look like on the ground?

Communication systems that hold strong, even under heavy shelling. Mobile workshops keeping equipment battle-ready, right near the front lines. Electronic warfare systems to neutralize enemy drones. FPV drones striking targets with pinpoint accuracy. Tablets and laptops streamlining command and control.

What was delivered

At the heart of it all are the people

Thanks to this collaboration, we’ve trained 254 skilled operators of FPV-type UAVs (drones), who are now on the front lines. They do more than operate the technology — they save the lives of their comrades, gain the upper hand in battle, and accelerate our shared victory.

This is more than just numbers. These are stories of lives saved, missions successfully completed, and opportunities that wouldn’t have existed without the support of Protect Ukraine.

We are endlessly grateful to our partners for every drone, every tablet, every training session, and every life saved. This support is the foundation on which our victory is built.

Together, we’re not just fighting — we’re turning the impossible into reality!
