  3. Share experience on the retraining and social adaptation of IDPs within Ukraine and internationally. 
  4. Improve the Ukrainian system’s regulatory framework for HE through the recognition of micro-credentials as part of lifelong learning practices at universities. 
  5. Facilitate cooperation between multiple actors to ensure social inclusiveness, increased employability of students, and quality of HE during times of social crisis.
