How the war changed education in Ukraine

Before the full-scale invasion, the Teach For Ukraine focused on addressing educational inequality. Fellows of Teach for Ukraine Fellowship program were employed in schools in small communities to teach children there: according to the latest PISA data, the learning gap between students from urban and rural areas in Ukraine is equivalent to about 4.5 years of schooling.

In 2022, in response to the challenges of war, we also launched an education recovery initiative, through which we support children and teachers with the Educational SUPport program (in Ukrainian Osvitnyi Sup).

Since then, our initiatives have reached more than 65,000 children and more than 2,000 teachers, and attracted more than 1,000 intellectual volunteers who help Ukrainian children catch up and improve their knowledge.
 
Learning is not only about academic achievement, but also about faith and seeing yourself in the future.
