Period of performance: not specified
Program background: The Pulitzer Center has supported dozens of reports on Ukraine, from covering the 2019 election of Ukrainian President Zelensky and the Russian misinformation surrounding the elections, to diving deep into the causes and consequences of the eight-year stalemate in the secessionist regions of Ukraine following the Russian invasion of Crimea.
Program Objective: With cities under siege, civilians targeted indiscriminately, and a flood of refugees surging into neighboring countries, the Russian invasion of Ukraine will likely dominate the news for much of 2022. But beyond the daily headlines, this is a story that will have far-reaching consequences for liberal democracies around the world. Its impact will be felt for generations and its proper telling will require not only sustained in-depth reporting on the ground, but also close attention over an extended period of time.
NOTE: Indirect costs are not allowed.
