[Commlist] Russia's War against Ukraine - EBU/JOMEC Research Fellowship Grant

*EBU & JOMEC RESEARCH FELLOWSHIP GRANT*

The European Broadcasting Union (EBU) is partnering with the School of 
Journalism, Media & Culture at Cardiff University (JOMEC) to offer 
grants that support research in the EBU Ukraine Archive which opened in 
November 2025.

Launched by the EBU, the Ukraine Archive is a comprehensive, searchable 
database on the Russia-Ukraine War since February 2022. It brings 
together thousands of video and audio reports from EBU-member news 
teams, as well as verified social media clips. The Archive is a resource 
for journalists, documentary makers, and researchers. It currently 
comprises nearly 30,000 items and continues to grow as the war goes 
on. The EBU Ukraine Archive offers an enhanced and focused content 
search and, in addition, every item is tagged according to editorial and 
legal categories designed to document human rights abuses in armed conflict.

JOMEC will offer three research fellowships of €500 each to current PhD 
candidates and postdoctoral researchers (within three years of a 
successful PhD viva) working in a relevant field whose research would 
benefit from access to this vital resource.

The EBU’s primary objective in supporting this opportunity is 
to encourage the use of the Archive in research on the Russia-Ukraine war.

*Terms of the fellowship:*

Successful applicants will consult the EBU Ukraine Archive as part of 
their research related to the Russia-Ukraine war, attribute the EBU if 
content from the Ukraine Archive is cited, and submit brief feedback to 
the EBU about the experience of using the archive.

The EBU Ukraine Archive will be accessed remotely. Half of the 
fellowship award will be paid at the start of the fellowship, the rest 
at the end. The fellowship program must be completed within two years of 
receiving the fellowship.

Selected fellows will enter into a fellowship agreement with the EBU and 
must adhere to the terms and conditions governing access to and use of 
the EBU Ukraine Archive.

*Application:*

This opportunity is open to current PhD candidates and postdoctoral 
researchers (within three years of a successful PhD viva) working in a 
relevant field.

To apply, please submit a letter of motivation (500 words), a project 
outline (500 words) and a short CV (2 sides of A4) by email to 
(_EBU-fellowships /at/ cardiff.ac.uk) 
<mailto:(EBU-fellowships /at/ cardiff.ac.uk)>_ before Thursday 30 April 2026.
