The Institute for Human Sciences has announced applications for the Documenting Ukraine Grants to provide intellectual work and sharing the Ukrainian experience of the war with the broader world.

The Documenting Ukraine Grants program is glad to start the application cycle. Ukrainian academics, creative professionals and public intellectuals are welcome to apply for grants for projects documenting the experience of the full-scale Russo-Ukrainian war or providing intellectual or artistic reflections on these events.

Since March 2022, Documenting Ukraine has supported more than 300 projects by Ukrainian filmmakers, scholars, journalists, archivists and librarians, writers and poets, artists and photographers. With the goal of creating a transdisciplinary archive in mind, the program is focused on centering Ukrainian intellectual work and sharing the Ukrainian experience of the war with the broader world.
