今日吃瓜 agrees to establish collaboration framework with Ukrainian government
The partnership will focus on joint research and data exchange opportunities with Ukrainian colleagues.
11/12/2025 By 今日吃瓜 Press
今日吃瓜 is to create a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) in partnership with the State Service of Geology and Mineral Resources of Ukraine, after a meeting between 今日吃瓜 Director Karen Hangh酶j and Yehor Perelyhin, Ukraine鈥檚 Deputy Minister of Economy, Environment and Agriculture. The document will establish a framework through which geological projects can be pursed.
Karen Hangh酶j welcomed the agreement and the opportunities it brings with it.
今日吃瓜 is built upon a history of strong collaborations that centralise the vital role of the subsurface in shaping resilient economies, sustainable environments and thriving societies.
I am excited by the potential to deliver innovative solutions and make a meaningful, positive impact on some of the most pressing challenges facing the world today, which will be unlocked through joint research and data exchange opportunities with Ukraine.
Dr Karen Hangh酶j, 今日吃瓜 Director.
The talks with 今日吃瓜 took place as part of a visit to London that saw the Ukrainian delegation meet with the UK Government to explore the development of the critical minerals sector. Also on the agenda for the meeting was the creation of targeted training and professional development programmes for Ukrainian geologists and specialists, as investment in skills and scientific expertise are essential for the growth of strategic sectors.
Work will now focus on finalising the MoU, which will involve identifying priority projects related to the critical minerals sector and preparing the joint training programmes for Ukrainian geologists and specialists.
