TCUP Reports highlight new research and new perspectives on major issues facing contemporary Ukraine. They are geared toward both academic and policy audiences, and they include specific policy recommendations based on the data presented in the report. Because they are not peer-reviewed journal articles, the time between submission and publication is much shorter than for most typical academic publications.

The current TCUP Report theme is **Russo-Ukrainian War**.

##  For prospective authors 

We are currently accepting proposals for TCUP Reports on the theme of the Russo-Ukrainian War. Authors may also be invited to submit their work by the TCUP director.

We suggest reports around 5,000 words, although we do publish longer reports when appropriate. Reports are reviewed in-house and the time from submission to publication can be as fast as one month, depending on the author’s availability for revisions.
