  • The establishment of a "German-Ukrainian center for large-scale trials" (Helmholtz Center Dresden - Rossendorf / National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine - Physical Engineering Teaching and Research Center),
  • The establishment of the scientific area of "adult education" in Ukraine (University of Augsburg / National Jurij-Fedkovich University Chernivtsi)
  • The development and dissemination of a concept for "Strengthening the integration of research, teaching and innovation" at the National Transport University of Kiev (University of Paderborn / National  Transport University Kyiv)
  • The strengthening of "structural and system adaptations in the transfer of knowledge and technology" by the cooperation of German and Ukrainian universities (Martin-Luther-University Halle-Wittenberg / Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv).
