SUMMARY:Beyond the Headlines. Rethinking Ukraine since 2014: Academic Knowl
 edge and Public Engagement
DESCRIPTION:Since 2014\, and especially since the beginning of Russia’s f
 ull-scale invasion in 2022\, Ukraine has moved to the centre of public and
  political attention. During the last twelve years\, experts on Ukraine an
 d Eastern Europe have been increasingly called upon by the media\, schools
  and the wider public to explain complex developments and respond to curre
 nt events. This has also raised questions about the boundaries between aca
 demic expertise\, public engagement\, and advocacy.\\r\\nThe panel asks ho
 w public debates about Ukraine have changed over the past decade\, what mi
 sconceptions persist\, and what happens when academic knowledge enters med
 ia and public discourse. What can academic research contribute beyond the 
 daily news cycle – and what should we be talking about when we talk abou
 t Ukraine beyond the war?\\r\\nChair: F. Benjamin Schenk (Head of Ukrainia
