The UK Government is providing a \u00a33m support package for Ukrainian research community involved in academic research in Britain, in order to facilitate the continuation of their important work.<\/h2>\n
On 27 March 2022, the Government announced that the Ukrainian research community will benefit from a \u00a33m package of support to ensure that significant scientific endeavours being undertaken in the UK and beyond can be maintained in light of Russia\u2019s invasion of Ukraine.<\/p>\n
Researchers at Risk Fellowship Programme<\/h3>\n
The novel \u2018Researchers at Risk Fellowship Programme\u2019 is intended to assist both Ukrainian researchers escaping the conflict, and the Ukrainian researchers already based in the UK who are unable to return home.<\/p>\n
The Fellowships will offer a package for researchers including a salary, along with research and living costs for up to two years. This will be accessible across all disciplines for postdoctoral researchers, or those with comparable experience, with the objective of helping Ukraine in maintaining its research ecosystem.<\/p>\n
