Business School of Ucu BUSINESS SCHOOL OF UCU PROGRESS REPORT 201819 PRINCIPLES FOR RESPONSIBLE MANAGEMENT EDUCATION 1 GROWING COMPANIES BY GROWING PEOPLE The Ukrainian Catholic University is an open academic community living the Eastern Christian tradition and forming leaders to serve with professional excel- MISSION lence in Ukraine and internationally – for the glory of God, the common good, and Ukraine the dignity of the human person. on the world’s business map VISION To become a Business School: — A school whose development is VALUES driven by participants and alumni — A school that develops knowledge, — Personal growth skills and attitudes of participants — Responsibility for results — Is an Innovative Center and ways to achieve them of Excellence — Continuous improvement — Has a global presence and a culture of quality — Practices trust, respect for human — Openness to diversity and dignity, and values built upon respect for a cultural milieu Christian roots LETTER FROM THE DEAN Yaryna Boychuk, CEO LvBS The Business School of UCU is part of the Ukrainian Catholic University, which is the only institution of its kind in the whole area from Poland to Korea. The values laid down in the United Nations Global Compact are very relevant to our business school. It is exceptionally important that the leaders of the next generation understand global challenges, desire the sustainable development of their organizations and businesses, and also take these goals and values as guides for their daily work. Ukraine continues to move with confidence on the path of structural reforms and political and economic changes. And so right now we, as never before, need leaders who are ready not only to generate new ideas but to implement them, considering the human being and society. We are proud that graduates of our business school have been elected deputies of Ukraine’s Parliament from newly-created parties. We rejoice that we can support them, as graduates who have agreed to assume leading positions in structures of executive government in ministries and regions. As a business school with national standing, we are aware of the importance of our influence during the time at school, also accompanying our graduates in their activities. Particularly important now is the creation of communities around shared values and goals. Every year the Business School of UCU has more than 100 graduates in master’s programs and more than 500 graduates of programs of management development. Outstanding knowledge, relevant competencies, trust, readiness for leadership, and responsibility for the achievement of the results which are so necessary in a time of changes in our country – this is what unites our graduates. LvBS remains an active member of PRME, in order to benefit from the global experience of partner organizations and also to spread more actively principles and ideas of responsible leadership and sustainable development, which are the foundation of all our programs of instruction and personal growth. 4 5 A SMALL BUSINESS SCHOOL WITH A BIG IMPACT The story of the Business School of the Ukrainian Catholic University (LvBS) begins back in 2008. It turned out to be a year of economic crisis, but there was no way to give up the idea. Five people made a brave and risky decision to launch a business school, not in the capital, where all the money of the country was spinning, but in a western city of Ukraine, supporting the regional business community. The founders were inspired to develop and shape the idea: to bring the community of business people within Ukraine together, with a common goal of promoting the “brand” of Ukraine outside the country. This is where the mission of LvBS originates, “putting Ukraine on the business-map of the world.” It’s commonly-known that a country is often judged by certain perceptions and criteria, usually defined by successful global companies. This is the very reason why LvBS is geared towards helping Ukrainian businesses speak and be heard in the global marketplace. The founders of LvBS, who realized the importance of business education in western Ukraine, first had to choose a university where they could carry out this project. They came up with the idea of cooperating with the Ukrainian Catholic University. It was also crucial that there was transparency in the university’s policy. Later there was never a doubt that UCU was exactly the institution that the school had to be a part of. Currently, UCU is the university attracting the top high school graduates: 55% of UCU’s entrants in 2019 were in the top 5% of their high school classes. Due to the variety of aca- demic specialties and programs — from theology and philosophy to public administration and Data Science program — UCU provides its students with an international-class ed- ucation, applying best practices from the worldwide tradition of Catholic education and from European and US universities. Ukrainian Catholic University is currently a member of the following international networks and associations: The UN Global Compact (UCU was the first Ukrainian university, who joined the GC and agreed to align strategies and operations with universal principles on human rights, labour, environment and anti-corruption); International Federation of Cath- olic Universities (The Federation is made up of more than 219 Catholic universities that aim to promote, contribute, and develop Catholic higher education, according to criteria of quality, continuity, and autonomy); European Federation of Catholic Universities (UCU students participate annually in the FUCE program of student exchanges that allow them to study one semester in the member-universities of the Federation). Since its founding in 2008, the Business School of UCU has developed from a small start-up to a truly successful institution. Five master’s programs in three major Ukrainian cities, five intellectual centers, and more than 30 open enrollment programs of Executive Education run every year in various cities. And, very important to us, we often go beyond teaching just business: we educate healthcare managers of state medical institutions; we cooper- ate with the Ministry of Economic Development on how to support exporters; we teach the faculty of large, old state universities how to be agile and innovative; and we support and teach business from eastern Ukraine, which is partly the region of the Joint Forces Operation Zone (the territory where the conflict between Ukraine and Russian-supported separatists erupted six years ago). LvBS is making a real impact on the development of our country — as a part of the Ukrainian Catholic University, our dependable and fundamental partner. 7 350+ master degree programs alumni 2600+graduates of executive education programs 11people participated 000+ in o ine events in 2018-2019 8 9 PRINCIPLE 1 PRINCIPLE 5 PURPOSE PARTNERSHIP 12 46 PRINCIPLE 2 PRINCIPLE 6 VALUES DIALOGUE 18 54 PRINCIPLE 3 METHODOLOGY CONCLUSIONS 26 60 PRINCIPLE 4 RESEARCH NEW GOALS 42 62 SUSTAINABILITY PRINCIPLE 1 LvBS — UNDP’s national consultant for developing an online course for business on Sustainable Development Goals (2019) As a national consultant, the Business School of UCU is working on the component for the PURPOSE business sector in an important project, “Online Education for Sustainable Development,” which the UN Development Programme (UNDP) is introducing in Ukraine.

The historic cemetery is an integral part of the architectural landscape of each city, the confirmation of ideology, the spiritual and economic life of its time. Cemeteries dating back to the second half of the 18th century have been preserved in many cities of Galicia. Now we call them historical cemeteries. Most of them are no longer in use and are filled not only with historical but also artistic monuments made mainly of stone. Such cemeteries require constant care and uninterrupted supervision. Preserving the physical substance of these cemeteries is a great challenge and a difficult task. To do this, it is necessary to conduct mineralogical and petrographic studies of the stone material of the historic cemeteries of Galicia. The state of preservation of natural stone, which is most common in the historical cemeteries of Galicia, was analyzed, the types of this stone damage were investigated. Also, preventive measures to preserve the stone material of the historic cemeteries of Galicia are proposed. Keywords: architecture, restoration, cemetery, heritage, work of art, natural stone, geology Our ancestors, having accepted Christianity for the burial of the dead, adapted to the traditions of the new religion. It was also a way of honoring the deceased which was customary to bury (od sanctos) in the holy land - in the church or near it.

The confer- ence provided a unique opportunity to launch a dialogue between the Roman law scholars from both countries and to present the results of research that has been carried out parallel in Ukraine and Poland. Due to the international character of the meeting, its participants were able to view the various issues related to Roman law from the different perspectives and, simultaneously, to consider the elements shared by our legal culture. The official languages of the deliberations were Ukrainian, Polish, and English. The first day encompassed three sessions during which the researchers from Ukraine and Poland presented their papers. The conference launched as scheduled at 9 a.m. when the attendees were welcomed by Prof. Ihor Bojko and Prof. Maciej Jońca. Both of them stressed how important and unprecedented for the Law Faculty of the University of Lviv this meeting was.

The display was prepared by the Polish Institute of National Remembrance and the Ukrainian Institute of National Remembrance in cooperation with the Polish Embassy in Kiev and the Institute of Historical Research of Ivan Franko National University of Lviv. The Lviv City Council is supporting the exhibit. In Ukrainian Lwiw, in Polish - Lwów, in Yiddish and German - Lemberg. For Ukrainians it is the most important city of Western Ukraine, for Poles - the city, which is always loyal to Poland, for Jews - an important center of social life. After the collapse of the Austro – Hungarian Empire in 1918–1919 there was a battle for Galician capital – Lviv, which ended with Poles’ victory. In an interwar period some Ukrainians did not recognize the legitimacy of the Polish government. Poles, on the other hand, viewed Ukrainians and partially Jews as disloyal towards Poland. Until the beginning of World War II, Lviv was a cosmopolitan Central European metropolis, the only city in Europe with three cathedrals: Greek Catholic, Roman Catholic and Armenian. In the interwar period, despite an official equality, Poles were a privileged group of citizens in the Republic of Poland. An unequal status of Ukrainians, Belarusians and Jews became a propaganda excuse for the Red Army to invade Poland in September 1939.
