In an online address to the participants of Ukrainian Week, Olena Zelenska emphasized that Ukraine's constant presence in universities around the world is important. According to the First Lady, investments in education and culture are part of common European security.
"It is also about the ability to distinguish facts from fakes, to resist manipulation, to get rid of the Russian view of geopolitics that Russia has imposed on the whole world for years, and instead to develop one's own view, based on thorough knowledge. A person who possesses information, who knows how to think critically and analyze, is a free person. A country whose people are informed not from social networks, but from academic sources, is a country that will stand," said the President's wife.
In total, this year alone, 24 universities from all over the world have joined the coalition: from Canada and the USA to Norway, Austria, and Japan.
