Educational SUPport program by Teach for Ukraine NGO won the Osvitoria.Media Award 2024 in the category “Education for Well-being.” In this category, the jury and media readers recognized initiatives that ensure equal access to education and make a significant contribution to education and psychological support for internally displaced children, refugees, children of military personnel and volunteers, children from de-occupied territories, as well as children with disabilities.
This year, Osvitoria.Media presented the Osvitoria.Media Award 2024 for the first time. This award honors projects that make a meaningful impact on education development during the full-scale war.
We thank the Osvitoria.Media team for the nomination and the jury for their trust. We are grateful to everyone who voted for us — without you, none of this would be possible! And thanks to everyone who helped implement Educational SUPport: tutors, experts, parents, and children who trusted us.
We will continue working so that every child in Ukraine has access to quality education regardless of their place of birth or residence.
As a reminder, in response to learning losses and related challenges, the Teach for Ukraine team launched a new program Educational SUPport — in April 2022.
This is the largest project in Ukraine aimed at compensating learning losses, using tutoring and mentoring approaches to teach schoolchildren. We provide free lessons based on the school curriculum and offer tutoring and mentoring support to students in grades 5–11. Learning is organized in “waves.” The project’s program covers core school subjects, with some waves including tutoring hours (lessons on personal development) or group sessions with a psychologist.
The project’s mission is to motivate children to learn, improve their academic performance, and together overcome gaps in their knowledge.
