At Lutsk National Technical University's Technical Professional College, Governor Polis engaged with students and educators to learn more about their educational system. The students presented him with a laser-etched woodcutting inscribed with "Volyn and Colorado are both GOATed," showcasing their appreciation for the Sister-state agreement.

Colorado currently has only one other sister state agreement with Yamagata prefecture in Japan under former Governor Roy Romer. Later this year, they will welcome Yamagata's governor and her delegation to further strengthen their cultural ties, industry collaboration, and tourism promotion.

These sister state agreements are crucial in building warm cultural ties and promoting understanding between Colorado and other regions across the globe. With the implementation of the Colorado Sister-State agreement with Volyn, both regions can look forward to a mutually beneficial relationship that will continue to grow in the years to come.
