Educational establishments planning online work to host IDPs – Vereschuk

KYIV. Aug 26 (Interfax-Ukraine) – Deputy Prime Minister of Ukraine Iryna Vereschuk, who is also the Minister for Reintegration of the Temporarily Occupied Territories of Ukraine, has said that internally displaced Ukrainians will be placed in educational institutions that plan to work online.

"Each family evacuated from dangerous regions and from the temporarily occupied territories will be provided with proper living conditions and will spend the winter in the warmth. Today in Ukraine, a significant number of educational institutions are preparing for the academic year, but at the same time they are going to work online. Their premises are insulated and equipped and could become a good shelter for IDPs [internally displaced persons]. It was decided to increase the number of institutions that will be turned into places of compact residence of IDPs," the press service of the ministry said, citing Vereschuk.

It was also decided to involve international and national organizations in resource support for the deployment of an additional number of places to accommodate internally displaced and evacuated persons in educational institutions, the ministry said.
