The “VOLIA” communication campaign at the Jubilee of Youth in Rome

We transformed the Ukrainian concept of VOLIA into a powerful spiritual message that reached over a million young Christians from around the world. The campaign positioned Ukraine at a major global religious event as a country of willpower, dignity, freedom, and faith

Read more

Context:

The year 2025 is a Jubilee Year for the Catholic Church — a special year that takes place once every 25 years. One of the key highlights of the year was the Youth Jubilee, which brought together over 1 million young Christians from all continents.

For Ukraine, still fighting for its freedom and dignity, this was a unique opportunity to speak to the global youth not only as a country at war, but as a bearer of deep meaning, faith, and hope.

This request was initiated by the Patriarchal Commission for Youth of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church.

Objectives:

  • Strengthen Ukraine’s presence at a global event
  • Convey Ukraine’s message to the world’s Christian youth through universal values of faith and dignity
  • Inspire global Ukrainian youth toward self-awareness and unity

Lovemark Solution:

We centred the campaign around VOLIA — the Ukrainian superpower that helps make the impossible possible, stay true to oneself, and believe even in the most challenging times.

The campaign included:

  • Development of a communication strategy and message box for Ukrainian youth built around the idea of VOLIA
  • A visual identity that fused the symbols of a wing (freedom) and a cross (faith)
  • Branded merchandise: T-shirts, pins, postcards
  • Video content explaining the essence of VOLIA through core Christian concepts
  • A lecture titled VOLIA as a Ukrainian Superpower for young Ukrainians who arrived in Rome

At the heart of the campaign was a biblical message:
“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” (Philippians 4:13)

We interpreted this verse as a spiritual expression of VOLIA — a God-given strength to act rather than observe, to do good, to love, and to live in freedom.

Impact:

Ukraine’s message reached over 1 million young Christians worldwide

Ukraine’s image was reinforced as a spiritually strong society rooted in values

VOLIA gained a new Christian dimension, becoming a universal code understood globally

Client: Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church
