Participation in this program gave me the impetus for reflection and reassessment of my actions. In professional terms, I received a lot of new knowledge; I tried to draw parallels between the activities of institutions in Ukraine and the United States for better understanding what we need to change to improve the situation in our country and what we can keep.

Discussions with investigative journalists from the Czech Republic turned out to be very useful for my professional work; meetings with the community leaders who shared their experience in struggle for transparency in political financing and against corruption were highly topical and sincere. But most of all I was impressed by the meetings with the Czech senators, who showed us that politics could be fair.

Visit to Bosnia and Herzegovina allowed me to get a new view of Ukraine and appreciate more what we have achieved, what we are creating and what we are striving to! Reconciliation efforts in Ukraine will start only after the cessation of armed hostilities, but it is worth laying foundation right now

This conference, in particular, and public dialogue about the problems and ways to ensure quality of education in Ukraine in general, are extremely important at a time of economic and political crises, time of challenges and changes.
