Her organizations help communities recover and rebuild after occupation and help in establishing and strengthening Ukrainian ties with international partners.

Since Russia's invasion of Ukraine on February 24,2022,Hopko,together with other Ukrainian civil society leaders Daria Kaleniuk,Olena Halushka,Olga Aivazovska as well as Katarzyna Pisarska Fundacja im. Kazimierza Pułaskiego established the International Centre for Ukrainian Victory (ICUV).

[34] [35] Hopko visited Japan as part of this initiative to promote support for Ukraine,keep the world's attention on events in Ukraine,and attract resources for recovery. [36] In May 2023,Hopko moderated the first Ukrainian-Taiwanese round table on the topic of tensions between China and Taiwan,and the impact of Ukraine's victory on the geopolitical situation in Asia,to develop and consolidate cooperation after last year's advocacy visit to Taiwan. [37]
ANTS National Interests Advocacy Network
In 2019 Hanna Hopko with other leaders established the ANTS National Interests Advocacy Network to form Ukraine’s 2030 vision and assist the next generation of Ukrainian politicians in achieving it. Organisation's aim is to fully prepare for NATO and EU membership by 2030,and to share this experience at the regional level. These objects will be accomplished by implementing and promoting necessary reforms,fighting corruption,especially in the face of Ukrainian oligarchs,and countering russian aggression in its hybrid form. [38]
During the parliamentary elections following the EuroMaidan revolution,Hopko headed the list of the Samopomich (of Self Reliance) Party,and was elected to the Parliament of Ukraine,where she was appointed chair of the Foreign Affairs Committee on 4 December 2014.
Hopko represented a new generation of young and reputable decision-makers in Ukrainian Parliament from the civil society representatives with ambitious reform agenda and who did not have a corrupt and communist background.
Supporting the ratification of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court,Hopko stated:"It is a demonstration of readiness to build a rule-of-law state in which it is possible to punish for crimes against humanity and genocide."
On 31 August 2015,Hopko and four other MPs of the Self Reliance party voted in support of amendments to the Ukrainian Constitution that would implement decentralization reform in Ukraine. As a result,she and the other MPs were excluded from the political faction. Hopko remained an independent MP,not entering any other political faction. Hopko stated that the constitutional amendment was "an important step towards comprehensive change in Ukraine" and contained "no concessions to Russia". [39]
In May 2017,she co-sponsored a bill in the Ukrainian parliament requiring 75% of national television programming,and 50% of local programming,to be in the Ukrainian language. Hopko and her associates believe that widespread use of the Russian language undermines Ukrainian statehood.
