An Australian university is creating opportunities for Ukrainian students who have been affected by their homeland’s ongoing conflict with Russia via the establishment of a new scholarship fund, adding education to the list of aid ordinary Australians are offering to the war-torn nation.

Charles Darwin University (CDU), situated in the Northern Territory in the north of Australia, has announced it has created the first Australian scholarship fund for Ukrainians that are resettling in Australia. The CDU Ukrainian Assistance Scholarship is intended to help pay for the living expenses, tuition fees, and textbooks for Ukrainian humanitarian visa holders.
