Kyiv School of Economics offers grants to creative Ukrainians
The Kyiv School of Economics (KSE) created the Talents for Ukraine program, providing Ukrainians with grants of up to $1 million for creative ideas.
Rubryka reports, referring to the KSE's grant announcement.
What is the problem?
Future Ukraine is impossible without the development of the creative potential of young leaders. Amid russia's war, the outflow of creative minds abroad is high. To help young Ukrainians flourish in their native country and boost Ukraine's economy and growth, it's essential to support them and finance their initiatives.
What is the solution?
Thanks to international benefactors, the Kyiv School of Economics created the Talents for Ukraine program to support a new generation of leaders who know how to think outside the box, are talented and unusual, and act not like anybody else.
"Our goal is to help talents grow and develop right here [in Ukraine]," say the organizers.
How does it work?
Anyone from any industry can apply to participate in the competition without restrictions.
"We are looking for people who are already influencing or will soon be able to influence the development of Ukraine or the world. Right now, we want to help open up to everyone," KSE added.
The budget of the program is $1,000,000. Each winner can receive up to $5,000 in support, and the organizers reserve the right to individually determine the amount of support.
The grant program is open until the budget is exhausted. Applications will be accepted continuously throughout this time. Creative Ukrainians can apply for participation on the KSE website.
Earlier, the European Commission announces a grant competition to support new Ukrainian entrepreneurs.
The EU also launched recruitment for a scholarship program to support Ukrainian activists.
