The European Commission has announced the re-launch of the MSCA4Ukraine scheme to support displaced scientists from Ukraine. This Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) scheme has an additional budget of €10 million and forms part of the European Union’s collective response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
This scheme aims to support researchers fleeing the war in Ukraine. It will provide fellowships for doctoral candidates and post-doctoral researchers, thus allowing them to continue their work in academic or non-academic organisations in EU Member States and countries associated to Horizon Europe. Training activities for developing research-related and key transferable skills and competencies will form part of the support provided to the researchers. This scheme will also provide family allowances for researchers’ families, in line with other MSCA schemes.
The second call for applications is expected to be published in June 2024 and interested parties are encouraged to subscribe to the dedicated mailing list.
A launch event and info day will be held on 14 June 2024.
