Fundraising Ideas for Schools

The world is darkened by Russia´s terrifying, inhumane, illegal, and tragic war on Ukraine. The Stockholm School of Economics (SSE) together with the Stockholm Institute of Transition Economics (SITE) and the Embassy of Ukraine in Sweden hosted a fundraising event and discussion on how to provide intellectual and humanitarian support to faculty members, researchers, and students working within and outside Ukraine’s borders.During the event a new support association was launched, Friends of KSE, a Swedish nonprofit (“Ideell förening”) with the purpose to support academics with links to Ukraine and in particular, though not exclusively, those at the Kyiv School of Economics.
