The Oxford Ukraine Hub (OUH) serves as an interdisciplinary network to connect the exceptional breadth and depth of expertise across multiple disciplines at Oxford with international researchers and practitioners working on, and interested in, issues related to Ukraine. By placing Ukraine at the centre of scholarly enquiry and bringing together scholars from the social sciences and humanities, the OUH disrupts long-established epistemological hierarchies within Slavic and East European studies by fostering new collaborations across disciplines, departments, and institutions, including scholars in Ukraine.
Key outputs will include a workshop series, a podcast, and the development of an international and this open access ‘Global Ukraine’ website. The OUH also creates capacity for new interdisciplinary research opportunities, securing additional grants, leveraging policy impact, and broadening public engagement within the UK and beyond, which is critical given Ukraine’s ongoing struggle for independence.
The Hub is funded by the Social Sciences Division at the University of Oxford.
