During March-May 2024, a series of lectures and practical classes were held for 2nd year students of the Accounting and Taxation speciality as part of the Accounting (General Theory) discipline. The classes focused on public debt management and its role in economic development, based on the cases of Ukraine and the European Union. The classes were held as optional hours.
The optional classes were conducted by Assistant of the Department of Accounting, Doctor of Philosophy Filatova G.P., a participant in the Jean Monnet module project ‘EU experience in public debt management: lessons for Ukraine in the war and post-war periods’, funded by the Erasmus+ programme (101127602 -EUEPDM -ERASMUS-JMO-2023-HEI-TCH-RSCH).
