The phenomenon of the Ukrainian national minority is well known in Bavaria. Despite the noticeable presence in Landtag, local universities, Bavarian Academy of Sciences, diplomatic offices and other institutions, they are not the most populous minority in the region. Moreover, in the early 2000s there was the Ukrainian school, Technical- Husbandry Institute and University which had the legal acts to offer education to not only Ukrainians but also to people of other nationalities. What opportunities are available to Ukrainians in Bavaria to benefit from favourable conditions and how is the local authority handling the matter of the Ukrainian institutions? The main objective of the research is to identify the main periods of Ukrainian presence in scientific and educational institutions in Bavaria, as well as research their status in the region. Moreover, the support of these institutions to Ukrainian refugees in 2022 will be studied. Examining the Ukrainian refugee situation in Europe, the article will also evaluate the utility of these institutions. As a final point, the study presents the capacity of these institutions to affect the integration of students into society nowadays.
Научная и образовательная жизнь украинцев в Баварии
В статье рассмотрен вопрос миграционного кризиса украинских беженцев в страны- Феномен украинского национального меньшинства хорошо известен в Баварии. Несмотря на заметное присутствие в Ландтаге, местных университетах, Баварской академии наук, дипломатических представительствах и других учреждениях, они не являются самым многочисленным меньшинством в регионе. Более того, в начале 2000-х годов здесь существовали украинская школа, ПТУ и университет, которые имели правовые акты, позволяющие обучать не только украинцев, но и людей других национальностей. Какие возможности есть у украинцев в Баварии, чтобы воспользоваться благоприятными условиями и как местная власть решает вопрос об украинских учреждениях? Основная цель исследования – выявить основные периоды присутствия украинцев в научных и образовательных учреждениях Баварии, а также изучить их статус в регионе. Более того, будет изучена поддержка этих учреждений украинским беженцам в 2022 году. Исследуя ситуацию с украинскими беженцами в Европе, в статье также будет оценена полезность этих институтов. И наконец, в исследовании представлена способность этих учреждений влиять на интеграцию студентов в общество в наши дни.
