Recognizing the importance of ongoing support for Ukraine’s intellectual community, since February 2022 the IWM has expanded its fellowship opportunities for Ukrainian scholars.
Most recently, the IWM’s jury has selected all eighteen recipients of the two-month Fellowship for Scholars from Ukraine.
With this new program, generously supported by the City of Vienna, the IWM invites doctoral students and established scholars in the humanities and social sciences to pursue their research at the institute. The majority will be in residence in Summer 2022.
