Supporting the internationalization of Ukrainian universities: Shaping the Digital Future Together

From September 2020, the two partner universities - Eberswalde University for Sustainable Development and Ukrainian National Forestry University in Lviv - are jointly implementing a project funded by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD).

The main goals of the project are:

1. Expansion and use of innovative digital solutions, especially for teaching and and university administration.
2. Internationalization of Ukrainian and German higher education institutions, which is achieved through the exchange and transfer of know-how in the use of digital methods in scientific research, education and management.
3. Development of new digital training programs.
4. Creation of regional educational and research networks between German and Ukrainian universities.

The key elements for achieving these goals are the conceptualization and implementation of the interuniversity education training "Creation of interactive videos" for students and teachers of both universities, as well as the verification of the interuniversity elective educational discipline "Green Project Development and Management", which is addressed to graduate students and university employees. In addition, the achievement of the project goals will be realized through the implementation of a joint elective inter-university educational module "Ecosystem / Natural Resource Management in Transforming Countries", which has already been taught at HNEE for more than 15 years. The final element to achieve the goals of the project is the creation of a powerful Think Tank ERUkA "Empowerment and resilience of Ukrainian academia in the field of socio-ecological reconstruction and restoration".

Duration: 01.09.2022 - 31.12.2023

„Empowerment and resilience of Ukrainian academia in the field of socio-ecological reconstruction and restoration“

In this measure we will create an open-ended but goal-oriented exchange on opportunities and challenges for research and academic education in Ukraine related to socio-ecological ecosystem management in the broadest sense (e.g. from forest sector and nature conservation to renewable energy production and ecological economics).

Under the conditions of climate change, there is an urgent need for action to make forest management more ecosystem-friendly and to manage the entire range of ecosystem services in the sense of a socio-ecological concept. This includes nature-based solutions for climate protection and adaptation to climate change, as well as forest justice for all people who benefit from forest ecosystem services. Direct or indirect consequences of war that have degraded ecosystems also have a special significance. The further strengthening and transformation of Ukrainian academic education towards more dialogue and citizens’ involvement as well as problem and action oriented learning approaches will be discussed in working groups using a variety of workshop formats.

What the Think Tank is about

The Think Tank will be the umbrella for different working groups focusing on specific topics (see below), also to enable exchange between these working groups and possible synergies. The Think Tank and building of working groups will be coordinated by the HNEE team but the working mode of each working group shall be flexible to serve the needs of each group and their participants.

The objective is on the one hand to create an exchange and to support networks as well as to develop recommendations for political decision-making. On the other hand concrete project ideas and corresponding project applications shall be developed by the working groups.

Topics / Working groups

• socio-ecological management and restoration of degraded ecosystems
• socio-ecological transformation towards an independent energy supply
• empowerment of students to impact on the decision-making process in socio-ecological forest management
• needs and opportunities for academic education to attract students and generate the future key competences of 21st century (focus: digitalisation as a tool for more effective collaboration)

Tasks of the Think Tank ERUkA

The main task of the Think Tank ERUkA is to develop a network of scientists and experts who closely cooperate with policymakers and development practitioners (as an umbrella for the exchange of knowledge and experience of working groups on specific topics) to implement ideas for initiating joint projects. The Think Tank ERUkA team will support participants in developing their own specific topics, formulating project tasks, project proposals, finding partners, communicating messages to decision-makers and submitting project proposals to relevant financial institutions. The desired result of the Think Tank ERUkA is the implementation of the ideas of the participants and the creation of an intellectual network for the formation of a better future for Ukraine.
