An accession of other Ukrainian universities to the School is being negotiated, and as for June 2021, 5 Ukrainian universities have formally expressed their interest in joining the Partnership Agreement. The founding members are also working on a more detailed framework for their joint cooperation over the INTENSE School, with several iterations have already been agreed and signed off, as well as on formalising ties with the international INTENSE network.
