Reference: The National University of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy is a state institution of higher education in Kyiv, restored in 1991 on the historical territory of Podolsk after a long break caused by the liquidation of the academy in the imperial and Soviet periods. The process of the university's revival in the 1990s took place in conditions of institutional uncertainty, limited funding and relied largely on public initiative, charity and informal academic networks, which gave it the features of a semi-underground intellectual environment. In modern Ukraine, NaUKMA is one of the key centers of humanitarian and social education, a symbol of the institutional continuity of early modern academic traditions.
