Descendants of Ukrainian Ostarbeiters who were forced to work in Austria during the Second World War will be given the opportunity to study and acquire a profession in that country. For this purpose, the Austrian government has allocated 25 million euros, reported the honorary consul of Austria in Lviv, Yaroslav Nakonechny. In more detail, Dmytro Kanevskyi: \n \nAccording to Nakonechny, the money remained from the funding of humanitarian projects for Ostarbeiters. The Austrian government decided to direct it to education and professional practice for the grandchildren and great-grandchildren of former forced laborers from Ukraine. Each of them can directly send a letter to the representation of the "Understanding and Reconciliation" Fund in Vienna and receive funds for education. There are no restrictions or conditions, no language knowledge is required, says Nakonechny. The main thing is that the person is of legal age and has a document confirming family ties with an Ostarbeiter. "Grandchildren and great-grandchildren, by applying there, will receive any profession: agronomist, doctor, architect. The main thing is that there will be no intermediaries," noted the honorary consul. The amount for education is not limited, adds Nakonechny. \n
