British Academy Researchers at Risk Fellowship Programme

The British Academy (with the support of other UK National Academies and the Council for At-Risk Academics) has launched a Researchers at Risk Fellowships Programme. The scheme enables UK universities to host two-year fellowships to researchers at risk with funding of circa £37,000 per annum. The first priority of the Programme will be as a response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, which has exposed Ukrainian-based researchers to direct threat.

The Department of Archaeology at York would like to invite researchers at risk to contact us with a view to developing a joint proposal. Interested potential applicants should review the Department's research strengths and contact relevant academic colleagues to discuss opportunities.
