Lysiak-Rudnytsky Ukrainian Studies Programme

Sector: Culture and creative industries
Type: Programme
Location: Ukraine
Deadline: Finished
Organiser: Ukrainian Institute

This is a chance to receive up to UAH 400,000 to tell the world about Ukraine's past and present. A podcast about the musical underground of the nineties, a YouTube series about changemakers from small towns, and a translation of a book about Christmas traditions — the organisers will support five ideas that will help foreigners better understand Ukrainians.

The programme is implemented by the Ukrainian Institute in partnership with the Ilko Kucheriv "Democratic Initiatives" Foundation and funded by the International Renaissance Foundation. This is one of thousands of EU opportunities for Ukraine.
