50 Hryven 'Unity Saves the World'

Issued in 2024 while the war with Russia remains ongoing, this commemorative note carries an explicit political message — the title phrase is not decorative but a direct articulation of Ukrainian policy and international appeal during the conflict. Produced entirely at the NBU's own Kyiv facility, the note signals a deliberate choice to keep wartime commemorative printing on domestic soil despite the obvious logistical pressures of operating a banknote works in a country under active bombardment.

The Taran/Kharuk design team has handled most of Ukraine's significant commemorative output over the past two decades. This is among the relatively few Ukrainian notes to carry a named designer credit in catalog records.
