The meeting was attended by Andrii Ivanyshchuk, Director and co-founder of the Scientific Research Institute of Maritime and Space Law (SRIMSL). His participation highlights the importance of interdisciplinary interaction and coordination of scientific initiatives between the Academy and other research institutions.
Decisions That Shape the Future
The assembly began with an important announcement: the approval of the public institute “Academician-Partner.” This initiative opens new opportunities for collaboration, expert involvement, and the promotion of administrative and legal research.
Additionally, the Academy welcomed new members, including experienced scientists, professors, candidates, and doctors of science. They will play a key role in shaping new research directions and advancing legal education.
Honoring the Legacy of Outstanding Scholars
A significant part of the meeting was dedicated to commemorating deceased members of the Academy. Two honorary awards were established in the names of Academician Serhii Didenko and Corresponding Member Anatolii Dolhopolov. These awards will be presented annually for outstanding scientific achievements and research in the field of police-public cooperation.
Leadership and Scientific Support
The assembly unanimously re-elected Valentyn Halunko as President of the Academy. Halunko, who is also a co-founder of SRIMSL, continues to lead the Academy, fostering the development of administrative and legal sciences and integrating innovative research into law and public administration.
