Svitlana

Curriculum Coordinator

Svitlana is an educator, artist, creator, and feminist who believes deeply in learning through art. She holds a degree in English Language and Literature from the Pedagogical University of Ukraine.

Over the years, Svitlana has built a diverse career in education—from teaching English language courses to working as a counselor and later serving as a program director at a children’s educational camp. She continues to work extensively with young people, leading art workshops, courses, board-game clubs, and creative programs at children’s centers. A key part of her work also includes feminist art workshops for girls and women.

At the core of Svitlana’s practice is a commitment to creating safe, inclusive learning spaces where participants feel heard and their needs are respected. Equally important is her belief that everyone holds the power to create change—whether in small everyday moments or across social systems and national movements in Ukraine.

Beyond education, Svitlana runs a personal art-lifestyle blog, studies video editing, coaches a basketball team, and enjoys a wide range of hobbies—including Dungeons & Dragons.
