Dear scientists! As part of the Open Government Week, an open scientific and practical seminar of UkrINTEI on the topic “Surviving the storm: a close look at Ukrainian scientists and their needs in wartime” will be held. The speaker is Anastasia Lutsenko, Scientific coordinator of Academ.City, Kyiv Academic University of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Department of Innovation and Entrepreneurship, Max Planck Institute of Innovation and Competition.
Wars significantly affect the sustainability of scientific systems and scientists, often resulting in reduced research funding, disruptions in scientific communities, and termination of research processes. However, they also contribute to the emergence of new technological achievements. Researchers, as a key source of scientific knowledge, play a critical role in maintaining the productivity and progress of science in times of conflict. However, the lack of empirical data on this issue is often the reason for the limitation of factual data for decision-making. In our study, we aim to examine the impact of war on the perceived productivity of scientists by considering the example of the ongoing war in Ukraine. By exploring the challenges researchers face and the factors contributing to their resilience, we aim to provide valuable insight into the needs of wartime science. Understanding the experiences and needs of scientists can inform the development of policies and strategies that support and enhance the resilience of scientific systems in times of crisis.
