"Mariupol Reborn Academy is an important initiative of Mariupol comunity, people of unconquered, people who are fighting for freedom," - Associate Professor of Oxford University

Associate Professor of the Department of Sustainable Urban Development of Oxford University Vlad Mykhnenko developed a training course for Ukrainian communities affected by the Russian invasion. "The School of City Recovery" is part of Mariupol.Academy Mariupol Reborn's project.

The structure of the program will allow to form the necessary background, with which to start preparing for the reconstruction of municipal teams will be easier. In particular, it is about the methods of urban alternatives to the future, demographic research and systematization of European experience.

The Mariupol Reborn Academy is an extremely important initiative of the Mariupol comunity, people of the unconquered, people who fight, first of all, for freedom and the right to exist; It is actually an initiative of the entire city community, which is working day and night to win the Victory of Free Ukraine and the de-occupation of their land from the invaders. For me as a scientist, as well as for a person who has traveled to the Azov Sea every summer, and in which in Mariupol and in Donetsk many relatives are left, with which the connection is tragically broken, is very important for the The post-war Mariupol became a symbol of the unbroken spirit, and a symbol of reconstruction of the country on new principles

Mykhnenko told
