Through Da Vinci Ukraine, KSE Foundation supports the development of STEM education, academic competitions, and talented young Ukrainians. The programme’s 11 grantees include educational institutions and organizations from across Ukraine that use STEM initiatives to nurture the next generation of Ukrainian scientists, engineers, and innovators.
Projects supported through the programme include STEM laboratories and modern equipment for schools, Ukraine’s first FIRST Tech Challenge robotics competition, and an online platform that makes STEM education more accessible to Ukrainian children both across the country and abroad.
Together with its partners, educators, and mentors, KSE Foundation has expanded access to quality STEM education for more than 8,000 Ukrainian students and is building a community that helps them learn, grow, and succeed in national and international academic competitions.
The competition also recognized KSE alumna Anna Harus in the “Charity Manager of the Year” category. She leads the NGO Educated Initiative, which implements educational and humanitarian projects and supports people affected by the war through innovation and community-based initiatives.
