U-LEAD with Europe launched additional emergency support for Chernihiv Secondary School No. 3, which was damaged as a result of a Russian missile attack on the city center on August 19, 2023.

U-LEAD and the "Brave to Rebuild" Foundation restored windows in Chernihiv School No. 3, which was damaged by a Russian missile attack on August 19. In particular, 33 windows and 12 broken glass panes were replaced, as well as other school windows additionally adjusted for better safety and functionality.

In May, U-LEAD with Europe launched the Local Schools Rehabilitation for Resilience initiative in Chernihiv to provide concrete support to selected war-affected municipalities by funding their individual approaches to restoring access to education. Chernihiv School No. 3 hosted a high-level delegation from the Service of Foreign Policy Instruments of the European Commission and impressed the guests with innovation, safe spaces for children, digitalization and creativity. 

As part of the Local Schools Rehabilitation for Resilience initiative, the "Brave to Rebuild" Foundation is currently repairing 12 war-damaged schools in Kyiv, Chernihiv, and Kharkiv regions.
