Roundtable: What should be the model for higher education reform in Ukraine?(in Russian and English) – with Mariya Ivancheva (UCD, IRC Equality Project), Kerstin Kaiser (die Linke, Brandenburg Landstag, Germany), Bakar Berekashvili (Georgian-American University, Tbilisi, Georgia). Kyiv, National Technical University “Kyiv Polytechnic Institute”, 7th of September 2015

Few people doubt that the post-Soviet education should be reformed systematically. But what kind of reforms should be conducted and in what directions? Which education models should we be guided by? The discussion raises questions about problematic sides of the models of higher education to which representatives of Ukrainian education community often refer. Which achievements, inner problems and disadvantages are there in higher education of the EU countries and Georgia? What should we adopt and what should we not? Participants raise questions on the models alternative to popular and idealized ones, on the models which are less known in Ukraine and which might be more appropriate for education reform in Ukraine.
