Abstract: The Ukrainian migration crisis, marked by geopolitical tensions and socioeconomic upheaval, has catalyzed a complex array of adaptive learning mechanisms among individuals, communities, and institutions. This research delves into the multifaceted nature of adaptive learning within the context of this crisis, while exploring how diverse stakeholders have responded to these challenges and navigated through these challenges.
Through a comprehensive review of scholarly literature, governmental reports, and firsthand accounts, this study elucidates the adaptive strategies employed by migrants, host communities, humanitarian organizations, and policymakers. It examines the dynamic interplay between external pressures and internal capacities, while shedding light on the adaptive processes that naturally emerged in response to the crisis.
Based on the application of the method of theoretical generalization, the authors developed a model of adaptation training of Ukrainian migrants in their new cities of residence. The authors discovered that young people face similar tasks and challenges during their forced migration, which is typical for both external and internal forced migrants. The method of case studies of the experience of the American, Polish, and Ukrainian universities revealed opportunities to design recommendations for improving the educational process and more amiable adaptation during the harsh conditions of the ongoing Russian-Ukrainian War.
Key words: wartime adaptive learning, migration challenges, Ukrainian migrants, soft and hard skills
