Representatives of the German side shared their impressions of participation in the events, noted that they liked it and assured that they plan to use some of the interactive methods of their Zaporizhzhia colleagues during classes in their university.

An interesting way to summarize impressions and to share them with others was the method of “posters”: posters were distributed during the event, which included questions in German and Ukrainian languages.  They had to give an answer by writing first impressions and associations, with which all those present later became acquainted.

At the end of the event, representatives of the Viadrina European University thanked the Ukrainian scientists for their hospitality.
