Challenges, risks, recommendations,” which took place on May 25-26 at the institution (www.puz.suwalki.pl/aktualnosci/o-bezpieczenstwie-regionu-i-polski,art3049/).

The remote presentation by Professor Yaroslav Vasylovych Stotskyi, Doctor of Historical Sciences, Prof. of the Psychology Department of the Ternopil Ivan Puluj National Technical University, sparked great interest among the conference participants.

Representatives of our university also shared their experiences of living in conditions of full-scale war, took part in lively discussions, and participated in the conference’s outcomes review.

It is worth noting that conference participants included professors from leading Polish universities, the Military Technical Academy in Warsaw, the Police Academy in Szczytno, the Military Aviation Academy, and the Polish University Abroad in London.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, an official invitation from the Ternopil City Council was given to representatives of the sister city Suwalki’s municipal authorities during the visit.
