Why is it interesting? The Reintegration Management Program is a collaborative effort launched by the Mission of the President of Ukraine in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, in partnership with MIM Business School, and supported by the Office of the President of Ukraine. Over a six-month period, the program’s online students received training in leadership development, management strategies, legal frameworks, and project management. The curriculum also included a deep dive into the history and specific challenges of currently occupied territories. Throughout the program, students engaged with public officials and human rights advocates, gaining insights into leadership and governance. Graduates of the Reintegration Management Program have developed 20 unique projects aimed at the revitalization of Ukrainian territories post-liberation. These initiatives span a wide range of sectors including education, culture, indigenous identity restoration, energy efficiency, healthcare, judiciary reforms, and public safety. In addition, the projects include resource centers and digital platforms designed to streamline social services and provide critical information for businesses, government, and citizens alike. |
| 12:00 PM | KYIV | – Paul Grod, President of the Ukrainian World Congress; – Nataliia Naumenko, Head of the State Migration Service of Ukraine; – Volodymyr Viatrovych, Member of Parliament of Ukraine, European Solidarity faction; – Solomiia Bobrovska, Member of Parliament of Ukraine, Holos political party party. All in person. | Roundtable: “Exploring Multiple Citizenship – Opportunities and Risks” Topics of focus: – How can multiple citizenship strengthen the connection between the global Ukrainian diaspora and Ukraine? – Will this policy help bring IDPs back home? – What are the potential benefits and challenges of embracing multiple citizenship? Why is it interesting? With millions of Ukrainians now residing abroad, this community represents an enormous intellectual and economic resource that could play a key role in Ukraine’s recovery and future stability. Implementing a framework for multiple citizenship could mobilize the global Ukrainian diaspora to contribute more effectively to the country’s development. It would harness the talents and skills of Ukrainians abroad while ensuring that their identity and connection to their homeland remain intact. The adoption of a law on multiple citizenship could open doors for Ukrainians living abroad to engage fully in Ukraine’s political, economic, and social spheres. Since 2019, this issue has been a top priority for the Ukrainian World Congress and has gained even more urgency following russia’s full-scale invasion. For the global Ukrainian community, it is essential that any law on multiple citizenship reflects a unified stance among all relevant parties. |
