<P> Religion in Ukraine (Razumkov 2016 survey) </P> <P> Religion in Ukraine is diverse, with a majority of the population adhering to Christianity . A 2016 survey conducted by the Razumkov Centre found that 70% of the population declared themselves believers . About 65.4% of the population declared adherence to various types of Orthodoxy (25% Orthodoxy of the Kiev Patriarchate, 21.2% just Orthodox, 15% Orthodoxy of the Moscow Patriarchate, 1.8% Ukrainian Autocephalous Orthodox Church, and 2% other types of Orthodoxy), 7.1% just Christians, 6.5% Greek Rite Catholics, 1.9% Protestants, 1.1% Muslims and 1.0% Latin Rite Catholics . Judaism and Hinduism were each the religions of 0.2% of the population . A further 16.3% declared themselves non-religious or did not identify in the above religions . According to the surveys conducted by Razumkov in the 2000s and early 2010s, such proportions have remained relatively constant throughout the last decade, while the proportion of believers overall has decreased from 76% in 2014 to 70% in 2016 . (p. 22). </P> <P> As of 2016, Christianity is particularly strong in westernmost Ukrainian regions, where most Greek Catholics live besides the Orthodox population . In central, southern and eastern regions, Christians constitute a smaller proportion of the total population, particularly low in the easternmost region of Donbass . Another religion that is present in Ukraine besides Christianity is Rodnovery (Slavic native faith), which comprises Ukrainian - and Russian - language communities (some Rodnover organizations call the religion Православ'я Pravoslavya, "Orthodoxy", thus functioning in homonymy with Christian Orthodox churches). Hinduism has been spread after the collapse of the Soviet Union by Indian and International Society for Krishna Consciousness' missionaries and is particularly present in the Donbass region . Crimean Tatars professing Islam represent a significant part of the population in Crimea, which prior 2014 was a subject of Ukraine, but has been since that year occupied by Russia . As of 2016, without Crimea, where Muslims formed 15% of the population in 2013, only Donbass maintains a larger community of Muslims compared to other Ukrainian regions (6%). </P>
