Ukrainian Voices Guest Lecture Series

From May 2025 to May 2026, we invite Ukrainian scholars to participate in a series of 12 online guest lectures, hosted by the University of Graz, Austria, and the University of Poznań, Poland. Through this initiative we want to provide Ukrainian researchers with valuable access to the European academic landscape, allowing them to share their research with broader academic and public audiences, connect with European colleagues, and ensure that Ukrainian science continues to be actively represented in the European academic community.
