IIE-SRF and the war in Ukraine - IIE Scholar Rescue Fund Skip to content IIE-SRF and the war in Ukraine IIE-SRF and the war in Ukraine The invasion of Ukraine by Russian forces has had a devastating impact on the country’s citizens and higher education system. As the war surpassed the one-year mark, the United Nations estimates that as many as 13 million people – including many professors and researchers – had fled the country, while millions more are internally displaced. Many of Ukraine’s universities and research institutions have been damaged or destroyed, limiting the ability of scholars remaining in the country to safely continue their work. Like earlier crises in Iraq, Syria, Venezuela, and elsewhere, Ukraine’s higher education emergency underscores the need to protect the lives and work of Ukrainian professors and researchers. These scholars are integral to the country’s knowledge production and will help rebuild what has been lost. Since the conflict began, IIE-SRF has supported 32 Ukrainian scholars, many of them women, in academic fields ranging from children’s literature to medicine to fluid mechanics. IIE-SRF continues to follow closely the events in Ukraine and the devastating impacts of the war on the academic community and country more broadly. Within this context, we are faced with the difficult decision of how to best allocate our limited resources. After careful consideration, IIE-SRF is focused on supporting fellowships undertaken in Eastern or Central Eur

You currently have JavaScript disabled in your web browser, please enable JavaScript to view our website as intended. The University has issued a statement calling for an immediate and sustainable ceasefire in Palestine and Israel. Here are some of the actions we as a University of Sanctuary community have been taking so far (some of which are still in development): We have a number of scholarships that Gazan students can apply for: Like the universities, Gaza’s hospitals have all been severely damaged or destroyed, and medical infrastructure been targeted, so there is an urgent need to support doctors (and medical students) so that they are able to return to Gaza to help rebuild the healthcare system when it is possible to do so. To this end we have developed an innovative scheme - the Displaced Student Initiative - whereby displaced medical students from Gaza and other conflict areas can complete their medical degrees as visiting students at the University of Leicester. We currently have two Gazan students studying with us via this scheme. Further information can be found through contacting Pro
