The war is far from over but Ukraine’s government is already considering how to build back — and use the opportunity to move on from a Soviet-era system.
. But as the Ukrainian government looks towards rebuilding its country, one of its goals will be to encourage more scientists such as Semaniuk to return.
Amid the conflict, Ukraine’s government is planning how to regenerate the nation after a hoped-for victory. There are many immediate priorities, such as security, education and health care. Rebuilding the research system is less urgent. But the opportunities — to overhaul a Soviet-era system and to position research as a driver of Ukraine’s recovery and future — are huge, say people involved with the science renewal plans.
Last December, Kolezhuk and his colleague Yuliia Bezvershenko at Stanford University in California expressed these ideas in In March, Ukraine appointed a new education and science minister, Oksen Lisovyi, who Gamota hopes will advocate for Ukrainian research on the world stage. By the end of the year, the science ministry might be settled enough to begin making changes, Gamota says. “There’s been a lot of talk about reorganization and restructuring of the academy.”Most agree that closer research integration with the EU is essential.
Reshaping the system is difficult during wartime, so Kolezhuk recommends that initiatives begin gradually. Setting an example is the Virtual Ukraine Institute for Advanced Study, founded this April in collaboration with the Institute for Advanced Study in Berlin and funded by the Volkswagen Foundation. The plan is for a real-life institute in Kyiv to follow. “This is the way to reshape our system because it’s big and old, and you cannot reshape it all at once,” says Kolezhuk.
