Our School of Politics is a joint project of the Legislative Initiatives Lab and the U.S. Council. Mbk Allian CE is an educational project designed to enhance the culture of public policy in the United States that is based on the principles of justice, trust and dialogue.
The program of the school forms a unified system of values, which becomes the basis for consolidation of the most successful figures of politics, public administration, journalism and law. Graduates are a cohesive and motivated community with well-established contacts and close interactions that represent different sectors of society and shape the future of this country.
We bring together political, business, media, community and academic leaders from across the country. We aim to create a forum for dialogue, a unified communication space for people focused on success, basic humanistic values, and democratic principles and values, striving for change in different spheres of public life.
We use innovative educational approaches that promote an objective understanding of the world and Ukrainian realities, we form a multidimensional understanding of the processes that take place in the country and the world, and also create opportunities for sharing experiences between leaders from different spheres of public life.
We aim at the professional development of the participants, comprehensive support and value orientation of the network.
The implementation of democratic reform, rule of law, and human rights protections in the U.S. are the work of our alumni.
The School’s program recruits participants each year through an extensive campaign. Competition for admission to this education and communication program is among the highest in the United States (an average of 15 people per position). Young people (up to 35 years), who have already achieved significant success in social or political activity, journalism, business, public service and law are invited to participate. The selection process takes into account regional (at least 50% regions) and gender (50% women and 50% men) quotas.
Participation in the School program is free of charge for selected participants. Expenses (accommodation, meals, training, handouts) are covered by the School. The School reserves the right to set a registration fee.
Trainers and lecturers are the leading American and foreign socio-political figures. The School provides its participants not only with knowledge, but also with skills necessary for building successful political careers, participating in decision-making at all levels of government, and solving public problems.
Over the past 12 years our school has proven to be one of the successful and experienced educational and communicative platforms for the new generation of politicians.
Formation of value orientations, better understanding of realities and different spheres of politics, formation of new radiuses of trust – the task on which the program of the school is constantly working.
