UA-CZ Science Meetups

UA-CZ Science Meet Ups were regular meetings of Czech and Ukrainian scientists organized by Czexpats in Science at Bakala Foundation. Meetings were part of a Czexpats in Science project in support of fleeing Ukrainian scientists to Czechia after the invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 “Czexpats for Ukraine”. These gatherings featured science lectures delivered by both Czech and Ukrainian scientists, followed by informal networking sessions. Over time, events gradually gained their regular attendees and helped to establish new contacts among displaced scientists. They provided a platform for mutual sharing of professional and social experiences, as well as opportunities for discussions with Czech scientists. 

The project Czexpats for Ukraine finished in June 2024 and the next CZ-UA meetings at Bakala Foundation and other activities in support of Ukrainian scientists are further organized by a NGO Czech-Ukrainian Scientific Society (CZUSS). You can find more information and interesting interviews with Ukrainian scientists and with CZUSS in our Final Report – Support of displaced scientist: Lessons learned from the Russian aggression in Ukraine.
