Donate to the Next Generation Emergency Research Support Fund

Widespread cuts to federal and university funding have left graduate students in Slavic, East European, and Eurasian Studies unable to conduct the immersive fieldwork that is so essential to our field. Without immediate intervention, field research in the SEEES region may soon be out of reach for many graduate students.

ASEEES has launched the Next Generation Emergency Research Support Fund<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Faseees.org%2Fnext-gen&data=05%7C02%7Caseees%40list.pitt.edu%7C504bf28beb9b4357343f08de805cfcf3%7C9ef9f489e0a04eeb87cc3a526112fd0d%7C1%7C0%7C639089333979104948%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=xBlci%2F7Qb2MV5oP9qsSdupzukPcjtgjPBxmhmxK9lTQ%3D&reserved=0> to ensure the longevity of our field during this critical moment. We are stepping in to provide immediate relief to the next generation of scholars in SEEES.
