Being an Lviv Honorary Ambassador is, on the one hand, an honor and, on the other hand, an obligation. When we decide in the ministry where to organize the event, I already have not only the desire, but also the obligation to have it in Lviv.
To be the Lviv Honorary Ambassador is to popularize Lviv. I can achieve this by holding forums and inviting guests. I see my task in training specialists who become active members of the world scientific community.
Being an Lviv Honorary Ambassador is a conscious propaganda of Lviv as a city of science. This is a new impetus for me. There is nothing wrong with tourism, but Lviv has many universities, so it is also a city of science. And the whole world should know about it
Being an Lviv Honorary Ambassador – a city that has its own deep traditions, nurtures culture, develops science and IT – is really responsible. I realize that this is not only an honor, but also a great job.
