School furniture

It is not enough that the COVID crisis has thrown all school lessons around the world off track. For Ukraine, it was seamlessly followed by the heinous attack by the army of the Russian Federation, which has caused and continues to cause enormous damage. In the event of an air raid, schools that want to offer face-to-face lessons must be able to evacuate all classes to a bomb-proof shelter within a reasonable period of time. Some schools are only able to do this with half of their classes. In this case, face-to-face lessons take place on a rotational basis. One week the classes of group A, the next week the classes of group B, and so on. The other half of the lessons take place online.

Other schools can only offer tuition on-line , simply because they do not have the means to evacuate classes to a safe place in the event of an alarm.

Air alerts are sounded daily in almost all regions of the country.

The fact that the quality of the education on-line is suffering extremely was already evident during the COVID crisis. In Ukraine, this situation will continue for years to come. Ukraine needs an enormous amount of additional school furniture to be able to set up such classrooms in air raid shelters. What's more, many additional pupils from the Russian-occupied territories are joining the schools in the rest of the country, which in turn requires additional infrastructure.
