Subject: [DevJobsIndo] fellowship opportunities at the National Endowment for Democracy



Dear Colleague,

 

We are writing to request your assistance in publicizing fellowship opportunities at the National Endowment for Democracy.  Established in 2001, the Reagan-Fascell Democracy Fellows Program enables democracy activists, practitioners, scholars, and journalists from around the world to deepen their understanding of democracy and enhance their ability to promote democratic change. Fellows are in residence at the International Forum for Democratic Studies, the research arm of the Endowment, in Washington, D.C., and receive a stipend, health insurance, and travel assistance.

 

We are especially interested in ensuring that this program becomes known to scholars and activists in emerging and aspiring democracies. Given your organization's important role in the promotion of human rights and democracy around the world, we are turning to you for assistance in spreading the word about our program. Included below, and in the attached flyer, is a brief announcement describing the fellows program, with a link to our website, where viewers may download our "Information and Application Forms" booklet.

 

We would be grateful if you could publicize our fellowship announcement and flyer by way of a web posting, email listserv, newsletter, office bulletin, press release, or by word of mouth. Thank you.

 

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at fellowships at ned.org.

 

Sincerely,

 

The Reagan-Fascell Democracy Fellows Program

DEMOCRACY FELLOWSHIPS

The National Endowment for Democracy (NED) invites applications to its Reagan-Fascell Democracy Fellows Program. Established in 2001 to enable activists, scholars, and journalists from around the world to deepen their understanding of democracy and enhance their ability to promote democratic change, the fellowship program is based at NED's International Forum for Democratic Studies, in Washington, D.C. 

Program: The program offers two tracks: a practitioner track (typically three to five months) to improve strategies and techniques for building democracy abroad and to exchange ideas and experiences with counterparts in the United States; and a scholarly track (typically five to ten months) to conduct original research for publication. Projects may focus on the political, social, economic, legal, and cultural aspects of democratic development and include a range of methodologies and approaches.

Eligibility: The Reagan-Fascell Democracy Fellows Program is intended primarily to support practitioners and scholars from new and aspiring democracies. Distinguished scholars from the United States and other established democracies are also eligible to apply. Practitioners are expected to have substantial experience working to promote democracy. Scholars are expected to have a doctorate, or academic equivalent, at the time of application. The program is not designed to support students working toward a degree. A working knowledge of English is an important prerequisite for participation in the program. 

Support: The fellowship year begins October 1 and runs through July 31, with major entry dates in October and March. All fellows receive a monthly stipend, health insurance, travel assistance, and research support through the Forum's Democracy Resource Center and Internship Program. 

Application: For further details and instructions on how to apply, please download the "Information and Application Forms" booklet available online at www.ned.org/forum/R-FApplication.pdf or visit www.ned.org and follow the link to Fellowship Programs. Please note that all application materials must be type-written and in English.

Deadline: Applications for fellowships in 2005-2006 must be received no later than November 1, 2004. Notification of the competition outcome is in April 2005.
