Description
The Canadian Institute of Ukrainian Studies (CIUS), located at the University of Alberta, offers this research grant for 2026–2027 to advance the study of relations between Indigenous peoples and Ukrainians in Canada. The program supports university-affiliated and community-based researchers, as well as research teams across Canada, whose work examines these relations in the Canadian context.
The grant continues a commitment first expressed in 2021, when CIUS introduced the Stasiuk Award for the Study of Indigenous-Ukrainian Relations in Canada in recognition of Canada’s newly introduced National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. The current grant carries forward that research focus, and CIUS provides accounts of previous recipients’ work.
