 Lviv State University of Internal Affairs (LSUIA) recently welcomed honored guests from the Interpol General Secretariat—Thierry Fernandez and Caroline Bouten—who visited to explore the feasibility of conducting international training programs in Ukraine.

Rector Dmytro Shvets greeted the foreign delegation and underscored the importance of international support, especially amid full-scale war:

"It is deeply encouraging when collaboration with international partners yields tangible results. We have chosen a European development vector and are steadily advancing along that path. Today, our university places a strong emphasis on training that reflects wartime realities: tactical skills, firearms training, drone operations, and—most critically—documentation and investigation of war crimes. This focus is not only timely but essential for our nation. We stand ready to host these training sessions ourselves, and I am confident that joint efforts between police practitioners and our faculty will produce significant outcomes."

Thierry Fernandez, a French Republic police officer with over 30 years of experience, stated:

"I have served in many global hot spots—most notably Iraq and Afghanistan—and I understand how important it is to personally assess the situation on the ground. That is the goal of our mission. We want to convince Interpol's leadership that here in Lviv, training can be organized safely."

Caroline Bouten, with more than a decade of experience in risk assessment, added:

"I joined Thierry's team six months ago, and we are convinced this event in Lviv is feasible. You have the necessary infrastructure, experts, and motivation. I have worked with various EU countries on security for mass events, and I see that your preparation level is high. Yes, Ukraine is still at war, but we want to demonstrate to our leaders that it is safe here and that this initiative deserves support."

The French officers also emphasized that they have the endorsement of the Interpol Secretary‑General, and that the organization is interested in implementing joint projects with Ukraine.

The visit concluded with an inspection of LSUIA's material and technical facilities, discussions on potential cooperation areas, and preliminary agreements for organizing joint training sessions in the near future.

The defenders were also presented with successful veteran-sports development projects in which the university's faculty are involved. In addition, they were briefed on potential employment opportunities within the university.

Oleh Humeniuk, Head of the Automotive Training Department, described the terms of study at the Barrier‑Free Driving School: "The main requirement is a medical certificate confirming that the individual is fit to drive a vehicle. The theoretical course lasts four weeks and can be attended either online or on‑site at the driving school. Practical training extends over one and a half months and can be completed in Lviv, Dnipro, Odesa, Kamianets-Podilskyi, Kropyvnytskyi, Kryvyi Rih, or in the Kyiv region."

He emphasized that the project is being implemented by the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine as part of First Lady Olena Zelenska's "Without Barriers" initiative. Its goal is to create equal opportunities for everyone who wishes to learn to drive and obtain a driver's license.

Joining the meeting was Serhii Bobra, Head of the Communications Sector at the Regional Service Center of the Ministry of Internal Affairs (RSC MIA) for Lviv, Ivano-Frankivsk, and Zakarpattia regions. He answered participants' questions about the services available to them.

The event also featured remarks by Nataliia Korkishko, Deputy Head of the Department for Social and Humanitarian Affairs and National-Patriotic Education at Lviv State University of Internal Affairs (LSUIA), and Karolina Skakunova, a leading specialist in the same department.

"We invite veterans to meet with cadets because they are best suited to share what we're fighting for and how. It's crucial for young people to understand what our real life is like. Additionally, we invite defenders to participate in activities at our sports complex. They have the opportunity to play volleyball, table tennis, or swim in the pool at the Dynamo Sports Society facility," Nataliia Korkishko explained.

Anatolii Perepelytsia, Head of the Human Resources Department at LSUIA, emphasized employment opportunities for veterans at the university and outlined its areas of activity and current job openings:

"We have vacancies that can theoretically be filled by active servicemen who have been wounded and deemed unfit for frontline service, as well as by those who have already been discharged from the Armed Forces due to their injuries. Lviv State University of Internal Affairs already has relevant experience: it currently employs about twenty people with disabilities, four of whom have taken part in combat. And we see real prospects for further development in this direction," said Anatolii Perepelytsia.

Arranging such events represents a tangible step toward new opportunities for defenders who prove each day that indomitability is not only about war, but about forging a path to a dignified future.

Lviv State University of Internal Affairs hosted a three-day training for heads of investigative units of the National Police. Law enforcement officers were trained on the specifics of interviewing children who have been sexually abused.

The event was organized as part of a joint project of the OSCE Support Program for Ukraine, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the National Police.

The final day of the training was devoted to the practical application of the skills acquired during the previous sessions. The participants prepared interviews, worked in groups, evaluated the effectiveness of their approaches, and discussed the psychological impact of working with sexual violence cases on the investigators themselves.

During the final session, OSCE experts Anna Kozlova and Rymma Yurchenko shared methods of preventing professional burnout and talked about ways to implement new knowledge in the daily practice of communicating with child victims. In the end, the participants received certificates of successful completion of the training.

"I sincerely thank everyone who contributed to the implementation of this project. Every day you do a difficult but extremely important job. I urge you to actively use the knowledge gained during these three days and pass it on to your colleagues," said Ruslan Strotskyi, First Vice-Rector of Lviv State University of Internal Affairs.

Serhiy Hrynenko, Senior Project Manager of the Human Security Component of the OSCE Support Program for Ukraine, also joined the greetings. He noted that the actions of investigators directly affect the experience of a child victim of violence, so such training is extremely important.

The training involved international experts Colin Carswell and Bernard Gravett, as well as Ukrainian legal and psychological experts. Participants highly appreciated the practical nature of the training, noting the importance of the experience gained for more effective work with vulnerable categories of victims.

The organizers thanked the participants for their active participation and noted that such events are an integral part of the development of child-friendly justice in Ukraine.

Lviv State University of Internal Affairs hosted an open lecture by former U.S. Attorney David Lewis on the peculiarities of the U.S. criminal justice system. The event was attended by cadets and students of the university.

The Rector of Lviv State University of Internal Affairs, Dmytro Shvets, addressed the audience with a welcoming speech.

"Today we have a unique opportunity. With the support of our international partners, I am pleased to introduce you to a special guest. I am convinced that the key points that will be made today will become not only important guidelines in your professional activities, but also serious arguments for career growth. David Lewis is a legendary figure. His professional experience is invaluable, and his knowledge of the processes taking place, particularly in Ukraine, is deep and thorough. Each of you will have the opportunity not only to hear valuable information, but also to ask questions and get professional answers," said the Rector of Lviv State University of Internal Affairs.

He also noted that from the beginning of a new academic year, David Lewis will hold a series of lectures for the university's students.

Before the event, the speaker told about his experience in our country.

"Since September last year, I have been teaching law at various educational institutions in Ukraine. I am inspired by the younger generation. It is important for me that the lectures are lively and interactive. We need not only to listen but also to discuss. It may not be easy at first, but I will ask you questions, and together we will build a real dialog," David Lewis emphasized.

During the lecture, he spoke about the structure of the US criminal justice system, as well as investigative methods, witness cooperation practices, and seizure and confiscation procedures.

The lecturer presented his practical experience in handling complex criminal cases in the areas of financial crimes, corruption, organized crime, money laundering, and cybercrime. He also outlined the key challenges faced by the modern law enforcement system in the context of globalization.

David Lewis has more than 40 years of experience at the U.S. Department of Justice, most of which he spent in the legendary U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York (SDNY), known for prosecuting mafia, financial criminals and high-profile corrupt officials. He also served as legal counsel to the U.S. Embassies in Tirana, Kyiv and Belgrade, and is currently an active lecturer in the U.S. and European countries.

For the cadets and students of Lviv State University of Internal Affairs, this meeting was a unique opportunity to learn about real cases of the American legal system and to adopt the experience of one of the leading experts in the field.

In the soccer match, the university team won in a penalty shootout, but decided to symbolically hand over the winners' cup to the lyceum students as a sign of support and respect.

In the volleyball match, the lyceum students won, demonstrating true team spirit and sportsmanship.

It should be noted that such competitions were dedicated to the International Olympic Day.

The event ended with a solemn award ceremony for the winners of all contests and competitions.

"Lyceum students, you are great. Your achievements inspire sincere respect. In each victory, you invest your future professional achievements. This training format is extremely important. After all, each of you is the future of our country. And I am convinced that you will be the first as you are working on yourself and sincerely strive for this," said Dmytro Shvets, Rector of Lviv State University of Internal Affairs.

Ihor Shmelkov, head of the Ivano-Frankivsk Lyceum of Security and National Patriotic Education of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, also addressed the youth. 

"I am grateful to Lviv State University of Internal Affairs for its constant support and cooperation. There are many more steps ahead, as a new stage will soon begin for you: choosing a profession and enrollment. You already have an idea of your path. The police profession is not only responsible, but also honorable and powerful," emphasized Ihor Shmelkov.

Vira Bolukh, Chief Specialist of the Department of Education, Science and Sports of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine, joined the congratulations.

"I sincerely congratulate today's winners! I am glad to be a part of the team that creates the future together, providing young people with quality education. It's nice to realize that we are one close-knit, friendly family," said Vira Bolukh.

The event was not only a great opportunity for practical skill development, but also an important step in shaping the national and patriotic consciousness of young people.

The event was attended by the head of Lviv State University of Internal Affairs, police colonel Dmytro Shvets, the first vice-rector of the university Ruslan Strotskyi, assistant rector Bohdan Bilinskyi, assistant head of the Main Department of the National Police in Lviv region for veteran policy Vasyl Ivanovych, director of the Educational and Research Institute of Law and Law Enforcement Ivan Krasnytskyi, as well as graduates and their families.

The event began with a solemn performance of the National Anthem of Ukraine. After that, the participants observed a minute of silence in memory of the fallen Heroes – defenders of Ukraine, law enforcement officers and lawyers who gave their lives in the struggle for justice and independence.

Then the graduates received their bachelor's degrees.

The rector of Lviv State University of Internal Affairs, Dmytro Shvets, addressed the youth with a welcoming speech. "Today is a significant day for each of you. Receiving a diploma shows that you have acquired the necessary knowledge, skills and professional training. I am sure that you will successfully realize your potential in important areas for the state. New opportunities lie ahead, including obtaining a master's degree. I believe that you will move forward, make changes and bring our common victory closer," said Dmytro Shvets.

Vasyl Ivanovych, a veteran of the russian-Ukrainian war and assistant chief of the Lviv regional police for veteran policy, was particularly emotional, calling on young professionals to be a support for the nation in times of trial.

  "Dear graduates, being a lawyer is not only a profession, it is a great honor and responsibility at the same time. Protecting the rights and freedoms of citizens, forming a new democratic society, and strengthening Ukraine's authority in the world is largely your vocation and your mission. You are on the side of the law, and therefore on the side of the people. Law is not just a norm. It is justice. And it is often the last bastion of hope for a person. Remember: you are not just specialists. You are the shield and conscience of the state. And today, someone who needs your protection is waiting for you," Vasyl Ivanovych emphasized.

At the end of the event, the graduates were wished not only professional growth, but also unbreakable spirit, faith in justice and love for Ukraine.

The event ended with a joint photo to commemorate the occasion.

 The event is part of a joint project of the OSCE Support Program for Ukraine, the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine and the National Police of Ukraine.

The training aims to improve the professional skills of investigators in working with children who have experienced sexual or other forms of violence. Particular attention is focused on studying the psychological aspects of trauma, methods of conducting sensitive interviews, and preventing re-traumatization of victims.

Before the training began, the rector of Lviv State University of Internal Affairs, Dmytro Shvets, addressed the participants.

"The topic of today's training is extremely relevant in the context of modern threats. The knowledge gained will be useful both for further professional activities and for effective counteraction to crimes in the field of sexual abuse of children and other forms of cruelty, which, unfortunately, still occur. The statistics in this area are truly alarming. Thanks to the support of international partners, the training participants will work out important algorithms of actions that each of them will be able to apply in their practice and, at the same time, share their own experience," said Dmytro Shvets.

Serghiy Hrynenko, Senior Project Manager of the Human Security Component of the OSCE Support Program for Ukraine, also took the floor.

"We were happy to organize this event here, at Lviv State University of Internal Affairs. A special feature is the Green Room, which is used not only for educational purposes, but also for interviewing children who have suffered from crimes. We hope that within three days we will be able to achieve the results we are striving for," said Serhiy Hrynenko.

During the training, participants will learn about the best international practices, including the British model of cognitive interviewing "P.E.A.C.E.", the NICHD protocol, as well as Ukrainian developments in the field of friendly justice. The training will combine theoretical training with practical tasks: role-playing interviews, group work, and discussion of real cases.

The training will be attended by foreign and Ukrainian experts: Colin Carswell and Bernard Gravett, experts in conducting procedural interviews, Counter Trafficking Network; Anna Kozlova, PhD in psychology, forensic expert; and Rymma Yurchenko, PhD in law, supervisors of psychologists involved in criminal proceedings involving children, experts of the All-Ukrainian Center "Volunteer".

This event was an opportunity to remind us of the power of parental love, the responsibility of a man in the family and his role as a protector.

During the event, the participants raised important topics: family unity, a father's responsibility for upbringing, the power of an example passed down from grandfather to father, and from father to son. They expressed gratitude, tenderness, and respect for those who shape the face of Ukraine with their work and courage every day.

Particular attention was paid to the connection between generations - those unbreakable spiritual threads that connect us with those who raised us, supported us, and passed on their experience. They also remembered those who are currently defending the state, fulfilling their duty to their families and Motherland.

The participants wished all the defenders to return home with victory as soon as possible.

'My Father is My Home Front' is not just a name. It is a deep awareness of the importance of parental support, the power of example, family protection.

  The competition among the best kettlebell lifters of Lviv region lasted for two days. The event was held at the Lviv Regional Children and Youth Sports School.

Cadets from Lviv State University of Internal Affairs also took part in the competition.

As a result, Vasyl Fedyshyn, a second-year cadet of Faculty №1, became a bronze medallist in the Lviv Region Kettlebell Lifting Cup.

The young man competed in the +95 kg weight category and demonstrated good results in the P-12 snatch.

Congratulations to the cadet on this achievement! We wish him success and new victories in the future!

Soon, they will defend the results of their dissertation research, on which they have been working diligently for the past four years. And aftercompleting their studies at the university, they will implement their findings in the work of law enforcement agencies in Lviv and Zakarpattia regions.

When speaking with the representatives from the personnel allocation committee, the adjuncts shared their thoughts on the educational and scientific programme they studied at the university.

'It was an extremely valuable and interesting experience for me. It is important that at the beginning of the training we received key knowledge on how to work on scientific research, which became a guideline for us,' said adjunct Ilona Fedyshyn.

The meeting on personnel distribution was attended by the rector of Lviv State University of Internal Affairs, Police Colonel Dmytro Shvets, and the head of the Lviv Region Police Personnel Department, Police Colonel Oleksandr Baklan.

After successfully defending their dissertations and completing their studies at the university, graduates will be able to continue sharing their experience with students at Lviv State University of Internal Affairs and conduct binary classes for them.

The rector of Lviv State University of Internal Affairs emphasised the importance of physical training for future law enforcement officers and wished the university students inspiration, motivation and significant sporting achievements.

Recently, Vasyl Fedyshyn, a second-year student at Faculty No. 1, won the bronze medal at the Lviv Region Kettlebell Lifting Cup.

The young man competed in the +95 kg weight category and managed to lift a 24 kg kettlebell 229 times in 12 minutes.

We would like to add that the competition among the best kettlebell lifters in Lviv region lasted two days. The event took place at the Lviv Regional Children and Youth Sports School.

Participants included military personnel undergoing physical and psychological rehabilitation at the «Halychyna» Center.

Among them was 41-year-old veteran Mykola Melnyk. From the early days of the full-scale Russian invasion, he joined the Territorial Defense Forces and participated in the evacuation of civilians from the occupied territories of Kyiv region. In the summer of 2022, he joined the Armed Forces of Ukraine and served in the Zaporizhzhia direction. During one of the combat missions, he sustained a severe injury as a result of an FPV drone strike.

Now, the veteran is undergoing a long and difficult rehabilitation. He is determined to keep fighting and living — both for himself and for his fallen comrades.

Before the war, Mykola had a rich sports background and actively competed in arm wrestling. Today, despite his injuries, he continues to train with the «Lviv Lions» sports club and recently received the title of Candidate for Master of Sports in arm wrestling.

At the Halychyna Rehabilitation Center, he learned about the sitting volleyball tournaments regularly held at Lviv State University of Internal Affairs.

«Engaging in sports, particularly volleyball, provides a therapeutic escape from the surrounding realities. Sports are beneficial for everyone, but after injuries they become essential. They help build endurance, and the rehabilitation center encourages us to stay active», said Mykola Melnyk.

The event was also attended by the Rector's Assistant and war veteran Bohdan Bilinskii, as well as volunteers from the charity foundation «With an Angel on the Shoulder». One of the volunteers, Khrystyna Yusiv, has long supported wounded soldiers.

«Since the beginning of the full-scale war, we've shifted our focus — from helping children with cancer to supporting the military. We aim to involve them in various activities to facilitate social reintegration, which is a key aspect of rehabilitation. Today's sitting volleyball session is important not only for the enjoyment it brings, but also because many soldiers are learning to feel and control their bodies in new ways», noted the volunteer.

The match lasted nearly two hours. Each successful round was met with applause, and participants exchanged emotions and supported one another.

Such activities are vital for rebuilding strength, restoring confidence, and inspiring resilience. Despite the trauma, loss, and long path of recovery, these soldiers continue to live, support each other, and inspire hope. The Lviv State University of Internal Affairs remains committed to helping Ukraine's defenders by actively promoting veteran sports initiatives.

Representatives of the Patrol Police Department of Lviv Region conducted another practical workshop for second-year cadets of the Lviv State University of Internal Affairs.

The workshop was led by Kateryna Shapovalova, Deputy Head of the Public Relations Unit, and police inspector Mariia Yuzefiv. During the discussion, the speakers debunked ten of the most widespread myths concerning the use of seat belts.

In addition, the cadets viewed an educational video highlighting the importance of properly fastening a seat belt while driving.

The patrol officers emphasized that every passenger in a vehicle must fasten a seat belt, regardless of seating position, as it significantly increases the chances of survival in the event of a traffic accident. 

Special attention was also given to the technical condition of vehicles. The officers outlined which mechanical faults permit vehicle operation and which ones render it strictly prohibited.

«Road safety depends not only on the driver's skills, but also on the proper functioning of brakes, tires, and other vehicle systems», noted Mariia Yuzefiv.

Moreover, as part of the «Safety. Road. Life» project, police officers reminded cadets of the fundamental rules for safe vehicle operation. They also provided a detailed overview of the responsibilities of drivers and pedestrians, while underlining the legal liability associated with traffic rule violations.

  Representatives of the Council of Cadet and Student Self-Government of Lviv State University of Internal Affairs took part in a roundtable discussion entitled "Veterans and Youth - a Common Vision of Ukraine's Future".

The event was initiated by the NGOs "Undefeated" and "Protection of the State" together with the Student Council of Lviv, in partnership with Ivan Franko National University of Lviv and S.Z. Gzhytsky Lviv National University of Veterinary Medicine and Biotechnology.

The purpose of the panel discussion was to create an open space for dialogue between young people and veterans. The participants discussed the vision of a common future for Ukraine, shared their experiences, outlined key values, and considered the challenges facing society during the war and post-war periods.

Special attention was paid to the opportunities for cooperation between students and veterans in building a strong, democratic state. Veterans' living conditions were discussed, including access to higher education, adaptation to civilian life and active participation in various public initiatives.

Lviv State University of Internal Affairs was represented at the event by Maksym Romanyna, Head of the Council of Cadet and Student Self-Government, and Pavlo Dmytruk, Head of the 1st year self-government of Faculty No. 2.

Such discussions are extremely important for the formation of a single conscious community in which young people and veterans work together for the future of Ukraine.

The event began with a minute of silence in memory of the fallen Heroes.

The film tells the story of Taras Bobanych's journey - from his youth to his participation in the war.

"Hummer" is a story of friendship, love and the struggle for Ukraine's independence, showing the strength of the volunteer's spirit, who stayed by his comrades-in-arms to the last and became a symbol of unbreakable strength.

During the presentation, Taras Bobanych's wife shared her memories of his life and values.

"This film is primarily about Taras as a person, not just as a warrior. He fought for freedom until his last breath.Today, our defenders continue to fight for your future, for the opportunity to live and study in a free country," said Natalia Bobanych.

It is worth adding that Hammer is the great-grandson of a Sich Rifleman, a patriot of his country who personified the connection between generations in the fight against Russian occupiers.

The warrior was born in Truskavets. He studied at Lviv State University of Internal Affairs, where he majored in Law. He also took an active part in the military-patriotic education of young people.

He was killed in April 2022 while performing a combat mission near the village of Virnopillia in the Kharkiv region, bravely covering his comrades.
