The Glasgow School of Art twins with Lviv National Academy of the Arts
 |
Professor Penny Macbeth, Director of The Glasgow School of Art and Vasyl Kosiv, Rector of Lviv National Academy of Arts, asynchronously signed the Twinning MoU between our two Schools. |
As part of the Universities UK International (UUKi) Twin for Hope campaign, GSA has twinned with Lviv National Academy of the Arts in Ukraine. Twin for Hope showcases how twinning partnerships between UK and Ukrainian universities are making a positive difference during this humanitarian crisis.
In the initial phase they will collaborate to provide: support to the UKR partners' academics and students; support in developing online materials; opening up of research groups to UKR partners researchers; hosting summer schools/island programmes; and equipment.
In the second phase we hope to look at collaborative academic provision; faculty/staff or student exchange programmes; visiting scholar activities; and collaborative research projects.
The MoU was made possible with the help of Professor Marcel Benčík, Vice-Rector for International Co-operation, Academy of Fine Arts and Design, Bratislava and Thomas Greenough, Head of International Development from the GSA.
