The future of the prosthetics system in Ukraine
Education, innovation, and new opportunities for veterans in Ukraine
The future of the prosthetics system in Ukraine is a new format of cooperation between the university, business, and a foundation that transforms the approach to engineering education, shapes a modern prosthetics system, and opens a path to a new profession for veterans. We develop modern engineering education, create a new scientific foundation, and build the prosthetics system of the future in Ukraine.
The project was created on the basis of Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute with the support of product IT companies appflame and OBRIO, in partnership with the charity foundation Genesis for Ukraine.
Two directions
of the project
Project Goals
reintegration of veterans into civilian life through gaining a new profession in the field of prosthetics
development of engineering education in Ukraine through 3D printing, modeling, and biomedical engineering;
building a scientific foundation for a new Ukrainian prosthetics system
development of modern educational practices for students with combat experience
creating an inclusive innovation space where veterans can learn a new profession and contribute to the development of additive technologies in Ukraine

“The value of this project lies in synergy. We bring together students, researchers, educators, partners, and those who have returned from the front. That is why the training and innovation center for prosthetics and rehabilitation, reskilling programs, and the master's program for veterans have become a natural continuation of our mission. Veterans not only gain a new profession but also become creators of solutions that they themselves help improve.
We are building an ecosystem where new certificate programs emerge, startups grow, laboratories for 3D printing, modeling, design, and scanning operate, and engineering developments find real applications in medicine and prosthetics. This is a space where everyone can contribute to solutions that carry human meaning and transform quality of life.”
