Researchers Help Centre Empowering Refugees

The commitment to tackling the refugee crisis extends beyond the time spent at business schools, as many alumni have launched their own businesses, NGOs, and charities dedicated to supporting refugees.

Anastasia Koptsyukh, a Ukrainian doctoral researcher at Aalto University School of Business, exemplifies this. With a strong background in tech startups and a deep compassion for those in need, Anastasia co-founded a help center focused on supporting refugees.

Description	"Business schools have always been deeply rooted in fostering innovation and addressing global issues. And a big part of this is the students, who make a profound impact. The causes of refugee migration may often be limited to a single country or region, but the consequences are global, touching many students who may not be refugees themselves but offer their support and utilise the skills they’ve learnt at business school for good."
