Disrupted Ukrainian Scholars and Students Initiative

The University of Alberta's Disrupted Ukrainian Scholars and Students (DUSS) initiative was founded in 2022 by the Canadian Institute of Ukrainian Studies (CIUS), Kule Institute for Advanced Study, Kule Folklore Centre, Department of Modern Languages and Cultural Studies, Department of History, Classics and Religion, and the Wirth Institute for Austrian and Central European Studies to provide research funding and other supports to disrupted Ukrainian scholars and students.

Since its inception, an additional 10 faculties and departments from across campus have rallied resources to help support DUSS.
