On February 16, 2026, Iryna Kozakova, PhD in Law, Associate Professor, and Head of the Council of Young Scientists of the National Academy of Management, took part in a regular meeting of the Union of Young Scientists’ Councils, organized by the Council of Young Scientists under the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine.
The event was held online and brought together representatives of Young Scientists’ Councils from higher education institutions and research organizations across Ukraine.
The central topic of the meeting was “The Global Coalition of Ukrainian Studies and Young Scientists.” The keynote presentation was delivered by Olha Oseredchuk, Head of the Project Office of the Global Coalition of Ukrainian Studies.
During the discussion, participants explored opportunities for engaging young researchers in international initiatives, promoting Ukrainian Studies within the global academic community, and strengthening cooperation among Young Scientists’ Councils.

Representatives of the Council of Young Scientists of the National Academy of Management actively contribute to its activities and initiatives.
On January 20, an online meeting was held with Kateryna Diatlova (Germany) — a sign language interpreter, teacher of the deaf, and documentary filmmaker focusing on the lives and experiences of Deaf people.
In the recorded session, we discuss important yet often overlooked topics, including:
• who Deaf people are and how to speak about them respectfully;
• how sign language works;
• the specifics of communication with Deaf people in Ukraine and around the world;
• inclusion, accessibility in education, and Deaf culture.
This recording will be valuable for anyone interested in sign language, inclusive practices, accessible education, and conscious communication.

An educational environment should be a space of development, support, and safety for everyone. When bullying occurs within an academic community, it not only undermines personal growth but can also cause long-term psychological harm. For this reason, fostering a healthy, inclusive, and mentally safe educational space is a priority for the National Academy of Management.
During the session, an original guidance handbook was presented, developed by Maksym Serpukhov, Vice-Rector for Academic Affairs and Innovative Development, together with Bohdan Liashenko, the Academy’s practicing psychologist.
The handbook materials include explanations of the causes of bullying, recommendations for early identification of problematic situations, communication tools, and effective response strategies for students, faculty members, and parents.
Special attention was given to practical exercises and the analysis of real-life cases. This format enabled participants to better understand the material, learn to recognize various forms of bullying, and develop skills for creating a mentally healthy and supportive environment.
The National Academy of Management continues its systematic efforts to ensure that every student feels safe, has the opportunity to realize their potential, and can grow in an atmosphere of respect and mutual support.
