We train veterans to operate and repair civilian drones in specially equipped simulator-engineering classrooms.
This will provide veterans with new skills and the chance to master a profession in fields such as agriculture, construction, humanitarian demining, and more.
The project’s mission is to create comfortable, veteran-friendly spaces for training and engaging veterans in the development and piloting of drones for the civilian sector.
The “Flight to Recovery” project has been implemented by Dignitas charitable foundation since 2023. During this time, we have helped more than 300 veterans and servicewomen acquire essential skills in working with unmanned technologies.
The project first launched in the Lviv region, where together with the charitable foundation “Iz yanholom na plechi” we created several training spaces based on rehabilitation centers for veterans.
In 2024, “Flight to Recovery” grew and expanded. The first training class in the Kyiv region opened within the Recovery Wings sub-project, implemented thanks to the Rapid Response Fund program by IREX and the U.S. Department of State.
In 2025, with the support of Veteran Space Irpin, a second training class began operating in the Bucha community.
The development of “Flight to Recovery” during this period became possible thanks to the support of the Ukraine-Moldova American Enterprise Fund, which helped make training accessible to even more veterans.
Today, the “Flight to Recovery” project continues its mission with the support of United Help Ukraine, creating new opportunities for recovery, learning, and professional growth for our defenders.
