On June 23, 2019 the director of the Ukrainian State Center for International Education Dr. Olena Shapovalova with the #studyinukraine team joined the delegation of the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine in attending the Ukrainian-Israeli educational forum “Collaboration inspires Innovation”, led by the Deputy Minister of Education and Science of Ukraine Mr. Roman Greba.

Delegates were welcomed by the president of Ariel University Mr. Michael Zinigrad. Topics such as the creation of common Israeli-Ukrainian innovative parks, academic acceleration programs, and scientific research commercialization were discussed.

Israeli experience shows that every university has a fundraising department, which would be useful for Ukrainian universities to help accumulate more funding.
