Due to russian military aggression in Ukraine, two waves of relocating educational institutions from occupied and dangerous territories have occurred over the past nine years (in 2014 and 2022). In ...the first place, relocation affected those universities that were based in industrial regions before the war and trained professional personnel for large industrial enterprises. The speed of the country’s post-war recovery will depend on the availability of professional specialists able to restore industrial enterprises’ functioning. Therefore, it is necessary to highlight the changes in the human capital of displaced universities due to relocation. The aim of this study is to assess the losses of human capital the displaced universities suffered due to russian military aggression. Using the example of Donetsk National Technical University, which has been relocated twice, the study illustrates the stages in which the organizational structure of one of the university’s divisions changed and the number of teachers decreased in 2014–2023. The study describes the key features of the first and second displacement waves and their implementation specifics. The survey of the resigned teachers demonstrated the losses of human capital experienced by the university over nine years. The benefits for those Ukrainian universities which have hired displaced teachers are exemplified. The results of this study indicate that the experience of displaced universities should be scrutinized at the ministerial level and used to develop strategies for restoring the human capital of the displaced universities and further accumulating human capital in Ukrainian higher education.

Sostegno sociale e psicologico nel processo educativo dei bambini reinsediati dalla zona di guerra in Ucraina.
L’articolo esamina le peculiarità del sostegno socio-psicologico nel processo educativo dei bambini reinsediati dalle zone di guerra in Ucraina. Lo scopo dell’articolo è diagnosticare le peculiarità dello sviluppo del potenziale adattivo dei bambini reinsediati dalla zona di guerra come una delle fasi principali del supporto sociale e psicologico nel processo educativo di questa categoria di bambini. Sulla base dei risultati della diagnostica, è stato stabilito che i livelli di sviluppo del potenziale adattivo della maggior parte dei bambini reinsediati dalla zona di guerra rientrano nell’intervallo normale. La stragrande maggioranza delle difficoltà incontrate dagli studenti reinsediati dalla zona di guerra sono legate all’assimilazione del materiale didattico, che, a sua volta, è causata dal loro insufficiente adattamento sociale alle nuove condizioni di vita e di apprendimento. L’articolo fornisce raccomandazioni agli specialisti scolastici che forniscono sostegno sociale e psicologico nel processo educativo degli studenti reinsediati dalla zona di guerra per migliorare il loro comfort emotivo e il successo accademico.

The article's scientific novelty lies in the authors' disclosure of the third-year students' average degree of communicative competence (CC) development. Of all the CC components, the cognitive and ...emotional components are the most prevalent (it can be observed among students of the Faculty of Natural Sciences, Faculty of Arts). The students of the Faculty of Foreign Philology and the Faculty of Arts and Graphics are more prepared for the behavioral component of the CC. Both students at the Faculty of Arts and Graphics and the Faculty of Physical Education exhibit a high degree of communicative tolerance. Additionally, the two factors that affect CC were identified: the external factors (organization of students' subject-related leisure; professional-oriented educational work with students; content of education at institutions of higher pedagogical education: specialty of the chosen profession; increased cycle of humanities; active pedagogical practice of students; age of students to work with; different categories of children and adults to work with); and the internal factors (students’ attitude towards self-development, self-education, students’ life and social experience, motivation for acquiring a specialty and CC, humanistic orientation of future teacher’s personality, persona's orientation to “person to person” profession).
