KSE has displayed incredible resilience under the leadership of Tymofiy Mylovanov and is continuing to educate the future leaders of Ukraine in-person in spite of the war with generators on-site to keep the lights on and underground classrooms in case of air raid sirens.

This holiday season, please consider donating (even a small amount) to the Kyiv School of Economics Foundation's "Donate to Educate" program. All donations will be matched by a generous anonymous donor.

We need $2 million to run Kyiv School of Economics next year. A donor will match up to $1 million, and we've already got $477K. Please help us raise what's left

But is education even a priority during a war? Here are student stories for you to decide

The program is designed to help support war-affected Ukrainian students (including those who are internally displaced or who have lost parents to the war) and provide them with a small scholarship to allow them to study in Ukraine at the Kyiv School of Economics.

How can new crop varieties be beneficially diffused from one setting to another, when the value contained within seeds is not immediately observable but instead must be discovered through experimentation? - asks @NicholasTyack in his #PhDThesis.
