Lysiak-Rudnytsky Ukrainian Studies Programme
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.
This competition is for individual entrepreneurs, analytical centres, universities, public organisations, and cultural and educational institutions that:
- Are officially registered in Ukraine.
- Work in the field of culture, analytics, education, or science.
- Application form completed in Ukrainian.
- Project budget with a breakdown.
- Project proposal.
- For organisations, a copy of the charter or a legal entity registration document. For individual entrepreneurs, an extract from the register.
- A scanned copy of the completed and signed legal entity form in pdf format.
Send the documents in a letter titled “Programme_Ukrainian_Studies_Lysiak_Rudnitsky” to academic@ui.org.ua by 31 December.
Organisers will choose five winners. You will find out the results at the beginning of February 2024.
