Funding programme for Ukrainian academics who have had to flee their home country.
This funding initiative is aimed at Ukrainian scholars and scientists who have fled Ukraine and are already in Germany or who will arrive in Germany in the coming weeks. The programme is open to:

• doctoral students
• postdocs
• established academics, scientists and scholars from all disciplines

The programme provides an opportunity for them to continue their work in a research group at a university or research institute in Germany for a period of 6–12 months. Applications must be submitted jointly by the host scientists in Germany and the management of the host university.

The programme aims to support students and doctoral researchers worldwide who are formally or de facto denied the right to education in their country of origin by enabling them to either begin or to continue studying in Germany with the goal of obtaining a degree or doctorate from a German university.

Target group: Students and doctoral research students worldwide who are demonstrably at risk of being denied the right to education in their country of origin – either formally or de facto – due to their ethnic, sexual, gender or religious identity or their political or civic activities.

Their mission is to collect and disseminate information about support opportunities at the university, national, and international level for graduate students and researchers directly affiliated to an academic institution in Ukraine.

The programme, which is set to launch this spring, has two main aims:

• provide immediate assistance to scholars in the continuation of their research in a safe environment by providing funds to academic host institutions across Europe for up to one year.
• to facilitate support to Ukrainian institutions to continue their operations, rebuild their research networks, and foster the return of scientists to Ukraine after the war.

The loan offered by the Hildegardis Association is meant to support women who have fled Ukraine and are now starting or continuing their studies in Germany or who are continuing their studies online in Ukraine from Germany. The Hildegardis Association supports women across all subjects and regardless of their nationality. A prerequisite for a loan is that the female students belong to a Christian denomination.
