Empowering Ukrainians: The Role of Edutainment Series
The primary goal of new educational series is to assist Ukrainians in finding jobs, learning to use digital tools, understanding future technologies, and starting their own businesses.
“We are striving to create the most digital country in the world. This is only possible if citizens possess digital skills and are ready to face modern challenges. Therefore, the Diia.Education platform is introducing more courses on artificial intelligence, digital business, future technologies, and employment. Innovation is the driving force behind digital transformation, and our task is to provide access to knowledge that opens new opportunities and shapes the innovative potential of Ukraine,” emphasized Valeria Ionan, Deputy Minister of Digital Transformation for European Integration.
Each series includes short educational episodes, tests, and a completion certificate. Furthermore, each episode contains supplementary materials: presentations, structured notes, practical case studies, and visual infographics. This allows for convenient knowledge absorption while watching and returning to important notes at the right moment.
“We have witnessed the determination and resilience of the Ukrainian people, and we strive to do everything possible to help them realize their potential. We are immensely proud to have the support of powerful companies like Accenture and Amazon in building BecomingX Ukraine. We are also sincerely grateful to the individuals we had the privilege to converse with and whose stories we filmed — they generously share their experiences and advice to help others pursue their dreams,” stated Bear Grylls, co-founder of BecomingX and ambassador of UNITED24.

“Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, Amazon has allocated $105 million to support Ukrainians. Our assistance includes essential items — from medical supplies to books and devices that help Ukrainian children continue their studies. We also provide cloud computing resources that assist the government in preserving critical state data. We are delighted to have contributed to BecomingX Ukraine with digital skills content, practical examples, and operational support,” said Tanja Randeri, VP and General Manager of Amazon Web Services in the EMEA region.
The series are created by BecomingX Ukraine — a Ukrainian initiative of the international educational platform BecomingX, founded by British adventurer and UNITED24 ambassador Bear Grylls and social entrepreneur Paul Gurney. In Ukraine, the project offers free access to courses on digital technologies, employment, and a library of video lessons and resources for students and educators. The BecomingX Ukraine platform is implemented with the support of Accenture and Amazon.
