FELLOWSHIPS 2009-2010
The Institute of Current World Affairs plans to appoint one fellow in June and another in December. Candidates who meet the eligibility requirements are encouraged to propose fellowships in areas that interest them. They must present a strong rationale for the topic of their proposed fellowship. Areas of particular interest to the Institute include Burma, India, Iran, North Africa, Russia, Venezuela, and Southeast Asia, but candidates may seek fellowships in any country.
Most fellows are supported from the Institute's endowment. Fellows with appropriate topics may receive support from specifically endowed funds, including:
John O. Crane Memorial Fellowship
For fellows in Central and Eastern Europe or the Middle East.
John Miller Musser Memorial Forest & Society Fellowships
For fellows with graduate degrees in forestry or forest-related specialties. To broaden their understanding of the relationship of forest resource problems to humans, including policy makers, environmentalists, farmers, scientists, and forest-product industrialists.
In addition, the generosity of our contributors enables the Institute to appoint Donors' Fellows every two years. Topics and areas of study are unrestricted.
