On April 30, 2026, Kyiv hosted the graduation ceremony for the second cohort of the "Community Recovery School" – an educational initiative aimed at strengthening the capacity of communities in Ukraine's recovery process.

During the event, Oleksii Antypovych, CEO of Rating Group, presented an analytical block dedicated to migration sentiments and the challenges of preserving human capital. He commented on what can be done to retain human capital in Ukraine, based on the results of Rating Group surveys.

"The main motivations for going abroad are economic well-being and wages, as well as higher living standards abroad. Therefore, the economic development of communities and the creation of opportunities for personal growth will be the factors that can retain human capital in Ukraine," noted Oleksii Antypovych.

Rating Group's analytical contribution became part of a broader discussion on recovery strategies in Ukraine. The event brought together representatives of the government, parliament, local self-government, international organizations, and think tanks.

Rating Group's participation in the event underscores the role of analytical research in Ukraine's recovery process, particularly in understanding public sentiment, migration processes, and factors influencing the preservation of human potential.
