Associate professor, doctor of economics of the Department of Accounting and Taxation, Nataliya Vynnychenko took part in the Congress of Cross-Border Cooperation held on October 5-7, 2022 in Lublin.
Cross-Border Cooperation Congress has become a permanent fixture on the calendar of Lublin’s most important international events as a meeting place for practitioners of cross-border cooperation from the European Union and the Eastern Partnership countries. The Congress is a platform for dialogue between local governments, non-governmental organizations, science, culture and business.
The main theme of the Congress is “Security and Solidarity”. Russia’s aggression against Ukraine and the refugee crisis it triggered have demonstrated the strength of the bonds between local communities from Ukraine, Poland and the whole democratic Europe. The often underestimated city partnerships, many years of cooperation between cultural institutions, schools, universities and non-governmental organizations have built intercultural and organizational competences that allowed to create an effective system of support for millions of refugees and humanitarian aid to the fighting Ukraine.
The main feature of the Congress is a diverse cultural program. This year, it was possible to participate live or on-line in performances, concerts, exhibitions and meetings with the slogan “City beyond the borders”.
