Just Access Director, Professor Mark Somos, is proud to have joined Scholars Without Borders (SWB), a new programme at Harvard University’s Davis Center for Russian and Eurasian Studies. SWB aims to support scholars from Ukraine, Russia, and Belarus affected by the war, both those directly impacted by the destruction in Ukraine, and those who’ve had to flee Russia and Belarus because of repression. SWB is building a network of international academics who can help in the following ways: providing advice and mentoring on research and career possibilities, participating in online workshops and disciplinary seminars, and helping to judge grant competitions.
If you are an academic who would like to connect with and/or provide professional development to displaced scholars from Ukraine, Belarus, or Russia, please sign up here.
