The members of Igor Sikorsky KPI community submitted ten projects to the competition of Kyiv City State Administration within the framework of the "Public Project" program, the instrument of which is the "Budget of Participation" ("The Public Budget of Kyiv city") (https://gb.kyivcity.gov. ua). This program gives a chance to everyone to realize their dreams of improving life in Kyiv by offering projects that will be performed by the city authorities next year, or by voting for one of the proposed projects for its victory in the competition. In this way, the residents of Kyiv decide by themselves what the money of the city budget should be spent for.
Last year Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute took part in this competition and got the funds necessary for the implementation of the laboratory of microelectronics Lampa in the Scientific and Technical Library and the rock complex "KPIskelia" at the sport complex, for the improvement of the inner courtyard of the art space "KPI Tower", etc. This year, university activists have submitted the projects that will allow students to involve pupils in the life of Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute as much as possible and become our students in future, the projects will also help to realize the studio for creation of massive open online courses, will create comfortable and modern signs and indicators for orientation in the campus, will improve illumination and coverage of Wi-Fi in campus, etc.

If you have a bank card of Pryvat, Oschad and Pivdennyi banks or a Kyiv citizen card, you can vote on the "Public Budget" website by one click. This is a completely secure way that does not allow access to your bank accounts, only identifies you in the system. A detailed voting instruction is attached to this letter.
