Українська Building Back a Better Innovation Ecosystem in Ukraine
Research and comparison of Ukraine's performance in science
Go to reportSeveral international initiatives have proposed emergency support for the Ukrainian STI system. In May 2022, the European Commission launched the MSCA4Ukraine scheme to support displaced scientists, as well as dedicated funding and tenders under Horizon4Ukraine. In June 2022, the academies of science of Poland, Ukraine, United States, Germany, Denmark, United Kingdom and the ALLEA European Federation published a statement with a 10-point action plan in support of Ukrainian research (OECD, 2022).
Beyond these emergency measures, as the government finalises the National Recovery and Development Plan, this moment could be used as an opportunity to redesign Ukraine’s science, technology and innovation system in order to better contribute to the post-war reconstruction of its economy and society. OECD experience points to the strong role of science, technology and innovation in the post-war reconstruction.
