The RESET (Rebuilding Engineering, Science, Education, and Technology) Ukraine Action Group operates under the auspices of the Roundtable on Global Science Diplomacy. The RESET Ukraine Action Group works with Roundtable members and other experts to explore how Ukraine's capacity in science, technology, and innovation can be restored and enhanced, in order to contribute to the rebuilding and strengthening of Ukraine's people, economy, sustainability, and security. Through workshops and similar events, the Action Group engages high-level stakeholders from the U.S., Ukraine, and Europe to exchange information, discuss priority needs and solutions, and assist the National Academies in mobilizing action on key issues.

The RESET Ukraine activities include the September 2022 workshop on Rebuilding Research, Education, and Innovation in Ukraine and the with June 2023 on Preserving and Developing Ukraine’s Human Capital in Research, Education, and Innovation. The goal of this latest workshop is to strengthen the capacity within Ukraine to establish and maintain a robust science and innovation system that supports basic and applied research, trains the next generation of scientists and engineers, and provides mechanisms for S&T decision-making and advice to government policymakers. A third workshop on Addressing Environmental Damage in Ukraine is planned for early 2024.
