Launch of UKRAINETT+: Strengthening of collaboration between Norwegian and Ukrainian universities and research institutions

UKRAINETT+ is a new 3-year network project funded by the Research Council of Norway aimed at advancing university and research collaboration between Ukraine and Norway. The network builds on and expands the already established Norwegian UKRAINETT, a network for research on Ukraine, by including also Ukrainian universities and research institutes. An important aim of the network is to disseminate research-based and policy-relevant knowledge to Norwegian and Ukrainian policy makers, public administration, business, civil society and the wider public. This panel marks the official launch of the network in Ukraine, and speakers will present the network, discuss the role of research in Ukraine’s rebuilding, and give examples of good practices on the research-policy dialogue.
