The DAIL project provides grant support for SUTE students to participate in academic mobility at the German university. As part of a week-long program in Würzburg, students will participate in scientific and practical activities, work with primary sources and specialized literature in the university library, and have the opportunity to engage with German students and faculty to discuss research ideas and receive professional feedback on their work. During the trip, the student group will be accompanied by two university lecturers who will provide mentorship and help participants integrate effectively into the international environment.

The SUTE research group consisting of Professor Nataliia Mazaraki, Head of the Department of International, Civil, and Commercial Law; Associate Professor Tamara Kortukova; and PhD student Roman Shpyrka — will spend a month in Würzburg working on joint research within the DAIL project. Their research covers three key areas:

• An analysis of service provider regulations under the EU Digital Services Act and the possibilities of adapting these norms into Ukrainian legislation.
• A study of AI risk classification and developer obligations under the EU AI Act within the context of the Ukrainian legal framework.
• The development of approaches to legal requirements regarding the transparency of AI algorithms.

The DAIL project opens doors for SUTE students to engage in the international academic community, develop research skills, and establish professional contacts. For faculty and PhD students, it provides a platform to deepen expertise, conduct joint research with German colleagues, and develop practical recommendations for aligning Ukraine’s legal field with EU digital regulations.
