On 15 September 2026, the team of the project “European Integration and Ukraine: Historical Memory and Migration Challenges”, which had been implemented over three years at the Department of History of Ukraine of Zhytomyr Ivan Franko State University, summarised the project’s results and outlined future prospects. These include further improvement of the courses introduced within the project and opportunities to implement new initiatives at the level of Jean Monnet Chairs. The event was held in person at Zhytomyr Ivan Franko State University. The round table was organized by the project team with the support of the University administration. The discussion brought together representatives of the University administration, all members of the project team, and stakeholders, including local government representatives, students at all levels of higher education, and teachers from Zhytomyr lyceums. The event also featured a presentation of the teaching handbook European Integration and Ukraine: Historical Memory and Migration Challenges, prepared as part of the project.
