Description
Chatham House is pleased to invite applications for the Robert Bosch Stiftung Academy Fellowship (Russia and Eurasia) in the Queen Elizabeth II Academy for Leadership in International Affairs.
A fellow’s time will be split between three key areas:
- Completing a personal research project of the fellow's own design undertaken with the guidance of a Chatham House expert, (approximately 50%).
- Contributing to the ongoing research activities of their host research team and other Chatham House teams as appropriate (approximately 20%).
- Participation in the Academy’s Leadership Programme (approximately 30%). The Leadership Programme is a key part of the Academy fellowships. It provides fellows with the opportunity to develop their knowledge, skills, network and self-awareness, which they can then draw upon in their future careers as effective leaders in their field.
