Rationale for the initiative

The main drive behind Twinning is to keep the integrity of the Ukrainian higher education system, prevent brain drain, and help universities in Ukraine to come out of the crisis with added resources, skills, and robust international experience. Twinning entails a long-term commitment (a minimum of 5 years) between participating institutions to foster sustainable and mutually beneficial partnerships.
