The offer is aimed at female refugees from Ukraine with protection status S who also have a professional connection with the construction sector. The Bern University of Applied Sciences writes this on its website. People from Ukraine who have lived in Switzerland for a long time and are members of aid organizations involved in reconstruction can also participate in the course.
The course is intended to make a concrete and sustainable contribution to helping shape an active and far-sighted reconstruction in Ukraine, it is said. The graduates learn, among other things, skills for rebuilding buildings and infrastructure. Further learning objectives are sustainability, circular economy, energy efficiency, damage analyses, value chains, water and electricity supply, spatial planning and political preconditions.
“Bridge between Switzerland and Ukraine”
“The goal is not to simply learn how to rebuild something, but to generally pay attention to whether it is meaningful, sustainable and social when rebuilding,” said Thomas Rohner in an interview with the Keystone news agency. SDA. Rohner is a professor and lecturer at the Bern University of Applied Sciences. For example, when it comes to power plants or residential buildings, you cannot wait until the war is over, but you must win immediately with reconstruction.
“We want to build a bridge between Switzerland and Ukraine in the reconstruction process. “The idea is that we bring back to Ukraine skilled workers with the necessary knowledge and contacts in Switzerland,” says Mariana Melnykovych, project manager of CAS Reconstruction Ukraine. CAS stands for Certificate of Advanced Studies.
Assistance with hospital renovation
“I would like to get to know Switzerland’s innovative solutions here and introduce them to Ukraine,” says Ievgenia Rudnytska, a CAS participant. “This helps us to renovate a large hospital in Ukraine and operate it independently and environmentally friendly using solar cells.”
In addition to theoretical lessons, CAS Reconstruction Ukraine also offers practical further training. On one day of the course, the participants visited a Swiss civil defense bunker and a construction company that produces new concrete from construction residues.
The course can accommodate 30 students. The training is privately funded or through sponsorship of individual participants. The State Secretariat of Economic Affairs (Seco) is also a training partner.
