What we do
Introduce best practices of global education
We are looking for opportunities to bring the best global practices to Ukrainian educators.
The world is globalizing, and education turns more global as well. Ukrainian teachers need the latest educational approaches and theories for their own professional growth.
We implement the cutting-edge educational approaches.
Global Dignity Day
Global Dignity Day was established by Haakon, the Crown Prince of Norway and co-founder of the Global Dignity organization. Since 2015, our team has led the Global Dignity Day in Ukraine. In September 2020, Oleksandr Elkin was appointed the national chair of the Global Dignity organization in Ukraine.
One of the key elements of this day is a dignity lesson in schools in the form of discussions. In class and beyond, students explore their own dignity and learn to respect other people’s dignity.
Global Dignity Day
In many schools, the Dignity Day may last for several days, weeks, or even a month, but it typically ends on December 9, the International Anti-Corruption Day.
Over the past ten years, the events of the Dignity Day were held in multiple schools with thousands of participants.

EdMandry
EdMandry (EdTrips) is a program for educational trips to other countries in search for successful cases: theory, practices, and local changes.
How it was in Sweden
Since the program launch, Ukrainian educators have visited four countries:
2017
Finland
Estonia
2019
Sweden
India
2021
Sweden
Five EdMandry principles:
01
Getting to know the country’s education system prior to the trip.
02
Creating the education embassy in one’s school by implementing new knowledge.
03
Selecting proactive educators for the trip who can implement the knowledge they will gain.
04
Searching for friendly schools/colleges in other countries.
05
Crediting at least 80 hours of professional development for the EdTrip.
Change in 7 Days
In February 2018, Finnish experts Esa Sinivuori, Kaisu Helminen, and Dmytro Naumenko from Lumo Education, a company that trains teachers worldwide, arrived in the village of Trudoliub in the Poltava region. Over the course of a week, they assisted the school in auditing its strengths and weaknesses, conducted several demonstration lessons and training sessions, and provided consultations to educators on developing their own school improvement program.
Visit Trudoliub
Results of the Experiment
After the experiment, the school in Trudoliub has turned into an education mecca for teachers. School teams from all around Ukraine come here to learn new impressions and practices.
Thanks to their talents, the teachers of Trudoliub completely transformed their school space, made their school experimental, which won it the status of a hub school.
SEE Learning
Social, Emotional and Ethical Learning (SEE Learning) has been developed by the international research and science team of Emory University in Atlanta, USA. SEE Learning has grown from the works of Daniel Goleman on emotional intelligence and the best social and emotional learning (SEL) curricula from around the globe. It has been inspired by the education of the future concept put forward by the 14th Dalai Lama. SEE Learning offers a comprehensive academic curriculum.
The program is focused on:
- students’ attention training,
- compassion and ethical sensitivity,
- awareness of interdependence,
- equity and systems thinking,
- resilience and trauma-informed practices.
Who helps to implement SEE Learning program
Program testing in Ukraine and globally
The SEE Learning has been tested by over 500 teachers in America, Europe, and India. Comprehensive research of the program’s efficiency is up and running. Ukraine, together with the U.S. and Colombia, where SEE Learning is implemented nationwide, has become part of this global research.
Use SEEL in your school
In July 2019, during the Fifth National (un)Conference, EdCamp Ukraine presented a pilot project of introducing SEE Learning in 26 Ukrainian schools (decree No.1431 of Education Ministry, dated Nov. 18, 2019).

Live conversation with
the Dalai Lama
Watch
We organized the first ever live conversation of the Nobel Peace Prize winner, the 14th Dalai Lama with Ukrainian viewers, which took part on Oct. 20, 2020. The idea first sprang in February 2019, when our delegation went on EdMandry to Little Tibet in India.
We formed a friendship with our Tibetan colleagues and successfully presented the Dalai Lama’s views on education, peace, and human coexistence to the Ukrainian people. For 13 days, we collected questions from Ukrainians on the event page, which were then posed to the Dalai Lama during the live event and discussed in three follow-up online sessions.
Course
Coaching Teachers: Promoting Changes that Stick
We translated the Coursera course titled “Coaching Teachers: Promoting Changes that Stick” Into Ukrainian. This course helps educators develop the skills to observe their colleagues and leverage their experiences for mutual development.
The course includes video lectures, learning materials, and tests. It was developed by American researcher Orin Gutlerner. In the United States, teacher coaching is immensely popular with educators: they can count on those colleagues who visit their lessons and help them draft their personal development plans.

The course is offered at Coursera
The course teaches how to coach oneself and others, and will help promote these practices among Ukrainian teachers.
SIMschool
SIMschool, human rights simulation games were developed in collaboration with the German CRISP NGO, which specializes in such games across various fields. Designed with the Ukrainian context in mind, these games provide an accessible and engaging way for students to learn about human rights and become active members of society.
15 teachers and 5 members of NGOs who were trained by CRISP have developed and tested similar games with advisory support from CRISP, and now present these games and approaches on an ongoing basis in schools for other educators.

In cooperation with Civil Peace Service Ukraine – GIZ our team was joined by Austrian expert and political analyst Jakob Fürst. For two years, Jakob provided expert support for the SEE Learning program and other initiatives related to peace and understanding. He also assisted with the organizational development of the team and created educational materials, such as how to talk to children about elections.
Our next advisor was the German expert and political scientist Fabio Sand, who joined us with many years of experience in the education sector. He, by the way, adored our hometown—Kharkiv! We are grateful to him for the contribution he made to the development of our activities.
Currently, this position remains vacant, and we are looking forward to welcoming a new advisor.
