On April 2, 2024, with the blessing of His Beatitude Metropolitan Onuphry of Kyiv and All Ukraine, the Kyiv Theological Academy and Seminary (KDAiS) will hold the XIII Annual Student Conference "Student Science in the Spiritual School".

This year, the conference will be dedicated to two prominent church figures of the second half of the 20th to the beginning of the 21st century – His Beatitude Metropolitan Volodymyr (Sabodan) and Archpriest Petro Vlodek.
