Open Society University Network Academy Fellowships Now Open
We are happy to announce that applications for the Open Society University Network Academy Fellowships at the Queen Elizabeth II Academy for Leadership in International Affairs are now open.
Serving as a creative hub for ideas designed to strengthen inclusive global governance, the QEII Academy was established in 2014, adding the capacity to develop a new generation of leaders to Chatham House’s international reputation for informed debate and independent research. Two types of fellowships are offered. Two junior fellowships are aimed at scholars at the early to mid-stage of their career (i.e. doctoral candidates, postdoctoral researchers and fellows). Two senior fellowships are aimed at senior scholars and faculty with demonstrated excellence in their chosen area of research. Each fellowship, based at Chatham House, the Royal Institute of International Affairs in London (UK) will last two months, with intakes in January and May 2021. OSUN Academy Fellowships will contribute to the Fellows’ on-going research projects, enhance their engagement in OSUN academic and outreach programs, and contribute to Chatham House’s work on the promise and challenge of inclusive global governance in the 21st century. The application deadline is Wednesday, October 14 at 5pm UK/12pm NY time. To apply and find out more, check the OSUN Academy Fellowships webpage here.
