The Society of Industrial and Office Realtors (SIOR) Foundation has awarded a $22,000 grant to Kyiv School of Development, a Ukrainian school for professional real estate development.
The grant will be used to provide free training for at least 100 reconstruction specialists to help in the rebuilding Ukrainian towns and villages that have been damaged following Russia’s war against the nation.
“The European Chapter applied to the SIOR Foundation for this grant to enable the ‘Recovery Manager’ program to be established and benefit not just the 100 people who will enter the real estate profession by undertaking the course, but also the Ukraine as a whole,” said Iain Finnegan president of the SIOR European Chapter and managing director of the Dublin-based chartered surveyors firm Finnegan Menton. “With the Ukraine Recovery Conference (URC2024) recently held in Germany focused on a whole society approach and bringing together stakeholders to facilitate recovery, we want to play our part, bringing our experience for the benefit of Ukraine.”
