Devastating Impact on Schools, Challenges of Remote Learning

The ongoing invasion of Ukraine has had a devastating impact on education. According to the official government figures, 262 educational institutions have been destroyed, and additional 3,019 facilities have been damaged.

Remote learning has become the primary source of education with over 40% of Ukrainian children currently studying exclusively online. As the upcoming school season approaches, countless Ukrainian children face the challenge of accessing remote education.

Devastating Impact on Schools, Challenges of Remote Learning

“Zmistovno” Project – After-School Learning Centers

“Nova Ukraine” Foundation has opened 30 extracurricular learning centers in Ukraine with the support of Howard G. Buffett Foundation. The centers offer a chance to socialize with peers and engage in various educational programs and leisure activities. We also support existing organizations that provide extracurricular education.

Supporting Access to Education

In July,  we donated 750 Chromebooks to children who desperately need them. The devices are going to kids who lost a parent in the war,  were internally displaced, or are experiencing disabilities. But many more kids lack laptops or tablets. It is difficult for them to continue their regular school education in these trying times.

‘Language and Thinking’ Program Prepares Young Ukrainians for Future Leadership

With Nova Ukraine’s support, Bard College leads writing- and discussion-filled workshops on the topic of justice Students from across Ukraine developed critical reading, writing, and civic leadership skills in a new program this summer supported by Nova Ukraine. The tuition-free, residential program, called Language and Thinking Kyiv, was based on Bard College’s Institute for Writing and Thinking approach to learning and was led by students and faculty members from the school. A total of 29 high school students completed the three-week program, which focused on the theme of “justice.” Students read and discussed texts written by Václav Havel, Lesia Ukrainka, Martin Luther King Jr., and others, and zeroed in on topics such as freedom, responsibility, and dignity. The students worked in small, immersive workshops and practiced a variety of writing formats, including free writing, loop writing, and process writing—all in English—and then shared and discussed their work with their classmates to examine and refine their own thought processes. One example of their assignments was the use of dialectical notebooks, in which students write down their thoughts about a text they had read together, then pass their notebook to another student to add their perspective.

Planning, Not Reacting: Ukraine’s Rescuers and Nova Ukraine Prepare for Winter Side by Side

On the tenth floor of an apartment building on Kyiv's left bank last January, Svitlana could not bathe her three-year-old daughter, Arina, or cook her a hot meal. After strikes on the energy system, they had gone more than three days without heat or electricity, in temperatures as low as -18°C. So she wrapped Arina in layer after layer and took her down ten floors of a dark stairwell to a heated tent that Ukraine's State Emergency Service had set up outside. There they could warm up, eat something hot, charge a phone and talk with a psychologist. Millions of Ukrainian families lived some version of that winter. When the power goes out, heat and water often go with it, elevators stop, and anyone who depends on electricity for medical treatment is suddenly at risk. UNICEF, which documented families like Svitlana's, observed that darkness and freezing temperatures intensify fear and stress for children. For the rescuers of the State Emergency Service, known in Ukraine as DSNS, a winter like that changes the job. They still fight fires and search damaged buildings after attacks. But when power, heat, and water fail, they also put up warming tents, install generators, and help residents get through the outages. Last winter left them, and everyone working alongside them, with a plain lesson: the time to prepare for an emergency is before it happens. Ukraine Is Preparing Earlier This Winter
