Following the initiative of Wrocław University of Science and Technology, Unite! has invited seven universities from Ukraine to collaborate

The tertiary institutes will implement the “Green Transformation at Ukrainian Universities” project, funded by the National Academic Exchange Agency. The main objective is to support the academic community of Ukraine by engaging partner institutions in regular activities under the Unite! Erasmus+ programme, this work will be carried through by Unite!’s community devoted to “An Open Innovation Community for the Green Transition”, led by Wrocław University of Science and Technology. A second, equally important objective is to establish permanent cooperation between Ukrainian universities and Unite!, which will facilitate the country's post-war reconstruction process, as well as constituting an important step in the process of its integration into the European Union.

With the programme “European University Networks (EUN) – National Initiative”, the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) supports the EU initiative of “European Universities”, especially the networking of universities among each other. The TU Darmstadt also benefits from this.
