Mental Health of Ukrainian Academics in Times of War

This webinar highlights the mental health challenges experienced by Ukrainian academics during the full-scale war. Based on empirical research and personal testimonies, the event explores how forced displacement, institutional collapse, and the struggle to maintain professional identity have affected psychological well-being. We will present findings on burnout, anxiety, and emotional exhaustion among academic staff, with a particular focus on gender differences, migration, and university relocation. The session will also showcase practical self-help strategies and institutional approaches to support academic resilience in wartime.
