Teaching Ukrainian citizens the official language of Ukraine has to be done on many different levels. Sending money is one way, camps could be another.
We mentioned somewhere lower on the board sending Diaspora Ukrainians to Ukraine for part of their indoctrination. Why not have similar programs within Ukraine? Have students from Donetsk, for example, spend a year at Lviv Polytechnic. Not only are they forced to use Ukrainian at school, but they are then also then exposed to the West Ukrainian culture. The eastern Ukrainians must be made to feel a part of the west Ukrainian experience, and Lviv is a great place to do it.
: : Feel free to donate your money and books to any ukrainian school in Doneck or Luhansk. They are far behind all over Ukraine.

: : : Hey guys, for Ukranianization I recommend TRAINING CAMPS. it has been tested by the Russians that the best way to learn another language is to put people to camps so that they can not survive without that language. If it has worked with Russian it will work with Ukrainian, after all they are not so far apart form each other, and the people who speak them seem to be also close in mentality. You just need to be carfull to seperate those other groups so that they will not speak with each other in their own tounge, because they might make fun of their supervisors/teachers.
