Programme Manager - Ukraine-SAR Europe

Scholars at Risk Europe (SAR Europe), hosted by Maynooth University, Ireland, is the European office of the global Scholars at Risk network (SAR). SAR is an international network of over 600 higher education institutions in 42 countries, whose mission is to protect scholars and promote academic freedom. SAR meets its mission through three core activity areas: protection (casework or direct assistance to at-risk scholars); advocacy (campaigns for individuals and to promote academic freedom); and research and learning (publications, conferences, workshops, and trainings).

SAR Europe seeks an experienced Programme Manager to manage the MSCA4Ukraine scheme, a new fellowship programme, funded by the European Commission’s Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA), to support displaced researchers from Ukraine. The scheme will enable researchers from Ukraine to continue their work at academic and non-academic organisations in EU Member States and Horizon Europe Associated Countries, while maintaining their connections to research and innovation communities in Ukraine. The scheme may also facilitate researchers’ reintegration in Ukraine if conditions for safe return are met, and contribute to strengthening the Ukrainian university and research sector and its collaboration and exchange with the international research community.
