Hello everyone, This is Rich Canevez, a postdoc at the University of Hawaii's School of Communications. I'm reaching out to the wonderful AoIR community for partnership/guidance, as I'm considering a study on the Russian invasion of Ukraine. This study would be a social network analysis + qualitative content analysis study that explores how activism and independent media that grew from the Maidan revolution is playing a critical role in resisting the Russian invasion (or at least my theory goes). Towards that end, I am looking to work with Ukrainian scholar(s) who might be likewise interested in this topic, or be available to provide some guidance in the thinking that could come out of this exploration. So if you are, or know someone, who is interested, please do contact me. Thank you everyone, and remember today the people of Ukraine who are fighting for the freedom we get to enjoy as scholars. ~Regards, -- Richard N.
