A study based on publication data traces how researchers moved within Ukraine and across borders between 2009 and 2022, with conflict-affected regions losing scholars while others became increasingly important destinations.
AI Summary
A study using publication data mapped the movement of Ukrainian researchers from 2009 to 2022, showing that conflict‑affected regions lost scholars while other areas gained them as destinations. The analysis found that these mobility shifts began after Russia’s illegal annexation of Crimea and the outbreak of fighting in the Donbas in 2014. The findings highlight that scholarly mobility during armed conflict is not driven solely by individual choice, but is constrained by the broader security environment.
