冲突和自然灾害影响到有关国家的所有人口，除了数以千计的生命被摧毁外，还对这些国家提供的科学进步产生重大负面影响。俄罗斯无端入侵乌克兰，土耳其和叙利亚的毁灭性地震，以及中东持续的冲突只是几个例子。数以百万计的人被杀或流离失所，他们的未来不确定。这些事件导致广泛的基础设施崩溃，电力、交通和服务中断。学校、大学和研究中心连同几十年的数据、样本和发现一起被摧毁。灾区的学者面临着短期和长期的问题，他们现在可以做些什么来获得资助和长期就业。在我们相互关联的世界中，冲突和灾害不再是一个局部问题，而是对整个世界产生广泛的影响，无论是现在还是将来。在这里，我们重点关注战争对乌克兰科学界当前和持续的影响，并从中吸取教训，适用于所有面临风险的科学家面临困难的受影响国家。我们介绍并分类了在面临困难的国家中用于支持研究人员的有效和可行机制的例子，并讨论了如何在国际科学界的帮助下实施这些机制，以及迫切需要什么。接触、提供可获得的培训机会和发展合作应增加包容性和连通性，支持受影响社区内的科学进步，并加快战后和灾难恢复。
Conflicts and natural disasters affect entire populations of the countries involved and, in addition to the thousands of lives destroyed, have a substantial negative impact on the scientific advances these countries provide. The unprovoked invasion of Ukraine by Russia, the devastating earthquake in Turkey and Syria, and the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East are just a few examples. Millions of people have been killed or displaced, their futures uncertain. These events have resulted in extensive infrastructure collapse, with loss of electricity, transportation, and access to services. Schools, universities, and research centers have been destroyed along with decades’ worth of data, samples, and findings. Scholars in disaster areas face short- and long-term problems in terms of what they can accomplish now for obtaining grants and for employment in the long run. In our interconnected world, conflicts and disasters are no longer a local problem but have wide-ranging impacts on the entire world, both now and in the future. Here, we focus on the current and ongoing impact of war on the scientific community within Ukraine and from this draw lessons that can be applied to all affected countries where scientists at risk are facing hardship. We present and classify examples of effective and feasible mechanisms used to support researchers in countries facing hardship and discuss how these can be implemented with help from the international scientific community and what more is desperately needed. Reaching out, providing accessible training opportunities, and developing collaborations should increase inclusion and connectivity, support scientific advancements within affected communities, and expedite postwar and disaster recovery.
