The legal basis of the Ukrainian-Slovenian cultural and educational cooperation: Protocol on cooperation between and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Slovenia (28 January 1994) and the Agreement between the Government of Ukraine and the Government of the Republic of Slovenia on cooperation in culture, science and education (12 May 1997).

Ukrainian community: Ukrainian diaspora in Slovenia has about 2,000 people. Ukrainians living in Slovenia work as scientists, doctors, athletes. There are 5 Ukrainian organizations in Slovenia: «Karpaty», «Ljubljana-Kyiv», «Rokavička» , “Razom” and “Agora.UA”.
Ukrainian public organizations actively organize events that contribute to the preservation and popularization of Ukrainian culture in Slovenia, provide important social and psychosocial support to newly arrived Ukrainians, facilitate integration into the labor market, and are also actively engaged in advocacy and the dissemination of information about Ukraine and russia's war against our state.
An important direction of the activity of the Ukrainian community in Slovenia is the organization of rallies, mass actions, and flash mobs in support of Ukraine, drawing attention to the ongoing full-scale war of russia against Ukraine, initiating appeals to the Slovenian authorities to increase support for Ukraine in the financial, military, and humanitarian spheres, and drawing attention to the problems of temporarily displaced Ukrainians in Slovenia.
A significant role in the adoption by the State Assembly (Parliament) of the Republic of Slovenia in 2023 of the Declaration on the recognition of the Holodomors of 1932-33 as a genocide of the Ukrainian people was played by the active activity of the Ukrainian public organizations "Ljubljana-Kyiv" and "Razom."
In 2022, the Ukrainian cultural and educational organization "Rokavička" resumed the work of the Ukrainian Saturday school on the basis of the Martin Krpan Primary School in Ljubljana.
