IVLP Impact Award Project: Networking for Ukrainian Women Doing Business in Kazakhstan

This project helped women who have been arriving in Kazakhstan since early 2022 look for opportunities to expand networks and grow businesses. It connected Ukrainian women in the agriculture, food, and restaurant business to networking opportunities within Kazakhstan. Konstantin collaborated with two other IVLP Impact Awardees during the project. Twelve volunteer groups, 9 new businesses, and 12 new jobs were created to help participants kickstart their new lives in Kazakhstan.

IVLP Exchange Experience
