Your peer-to-peer research network

The Bridge Research Network

The Bridge serves the purpose of supporting international research and improvement of knowledge in the field of European, Russian, Eurasian, and post-Soviet studies. We are a peer-to-peer network of university researchers, members of which mine data and conduct field research in their respective localities.
Knowledge has no borders
We help to fuel your research with evidence from the field. Because we believe in equal access to information and that knowledge must have no borders.
The Bridge offers unique infrastructure for remote empirical research abroad. The platform helps to conduct archival research, collect data, arrange polls and interviews, provide regional literature reviews, and support researchers in many other ways with the help of research assistants on the ground.
The Bridge ensures ethical study conduct, research integrity, advanced quality assurance system, and takes responsibility for bureaucracy.
We collect empirics and develop IT solutions to advance your research
  • The Bridge archivists will prepare digital copies of documents, annotate them, transcribe unreadable texts and translate documents of interest
  • The Bridge team from economics, political science, sociology and math departments of the leading universities will help to acquire data for your research
  • The Bridge team of sociologists and GR specialists will help you to examine public opinion and get insights of the key opinion leader or protagonists of your study
  • Unfortunately, many excellent studies never leave regional literature, often unaccessible to international scholars. We will be happy to bridge you over this gap
