Link UA
Connecting with Ukrainian Academia for Innovation and Collaboration
The programme connects Ukrainian researchers with UK-based colleagues for online guidance. It includes support with publication processes, project collaboration, and career advice. Hundreds of scholars from Ukraine have benefited from mentorship provided by UK institutions. We are open to further international collaboration with partners who can help secure the programme’s ongoing success.
The LinkUA project aims to enhance and expand research opportunities for Ukrainian academics through several key pilot initiatives: Research Catapult, Research Incubator and Academic Booster. Our initiative counters academic isolation by creating structured, long-term pathways for Ukrainian academics to remain active, visible, and supported in global research networks—retaining the research capacity necessary for reconstruction.
We organize academic, research, and cultural events to support Ukrainian academics and students. Our events establish partnerships with universities and connect with companies interested in collaborative research projects—strengthening resilience and building bridges between communities.
Who are we?
We are a dedicated team based in the United Kingdom and other countries, united by a mission to support Ukrainian academics and students. Our work spans academic collaboration, mentoring, and cultural & research events. We aim to support Ukrainian academics whose careers have been disrupted by the ongoing war by bridging the gap between Ukrainian and international communities, fostering long-term partnerships and advancing academic resilience.
