In 2022 the Society awarded fifty fellowships to Ukrainian scholars, writers, and artists affected by Russia’s war against Ukraine. Thanks to generous donations we are now able to award a second set of fellowships for 2025. We welcome applications from Ukrainian scholars, writers, and artists residing in Ukraine and those in the U.S. who have been displaced by the war.
Fellowships will include a one-time payment of $2,000, a six-month affiliation with the Shevchenko Scientific Society in the U.S., a profile page on our website, and access to a shevchenko.org email address.
Applicants should submit the following items (in English or Ukrainian) by email to grants@shevchenko.org:
● Short Curriculum Vitae (1 page)
● Statement (up to1 page single-spaced) that describes the candidate’s scholarly or creative profile and description of need
Applications will be evaluated on both overall profile and on need. Applications will be reviewed by the Grants Committee of NTSh-A. The deadline for submitting applications is May 1, 2025. Applicants will be notified by June 1, 2025.
These fellowships are supported by the Shevchenko Emergency Fund, a fund-raising initiative of the Shevchenko Scientific Society in the U.S. NTSh-A expresses its gratitude to the large number of donors who contributed to this fund.
