Description
The Kyiv School of Economics (KSE), Ukraine’s leading educational and research institution, serves more than 1,700 students and employs 800 staff. This winter, 350 members of the KSE community need emergency heating and housing support due to Russian attacks causing prolonged power outages in Kyiv, with an additional 250 expected to require assistance if bombardments continue. With winter temperatures reaching −20°C and only limited on-campus shelter available, urgent support is needed to improve living conditions. Corporation support would provide generators, battery systems, connectivity, and winterization supplies to help ensure safety and continuity of education during ongoing blackouts.

Description
Founded in 1996, the Kyiv School of Economics (KSE) was established to build Ukraine’s domestic capacity to educate a new generation of economists. Ukraine now faces an urgent human capital crisis. Decades of brain drain have significantly worsened following the 2022 outbreak of war with Russia, jeopardizing the country’s ability to rebuild and modernize its economy. With Corporation support, the KSE will launch the Carnegie Scholarship Initiative, within the School’s Come Back Home program, which aims to retain and attract talented young people to pursue their education within Ukraine.
