Dear Colleagues and Friends,
Given your organization's important
role in the promotion of human rights and democracy, we are turning to
you for assistance in publicizing the 2013-2014 competition for
the Reagan-Fascell Democracy Fellows Program at the
National Endowment for Democracy in Washington, D.C.
As a NED grantee,
your organization is well suited to publicize our fellowship program. Please
help us ensure that the Reagan-Fascell Democracy Fellows Program
becomes known to activists, journalists, and scholars in your
country/region by:
- Forwarding the announcement below to eligible individuals in or
outside of your organization or networks in which you participate.
- Sharing
additional email contacts with whom we can send our materials,
especially if you know of listservs, online newsletters, Facebook and
Twitter feeds, etc., where democracy and human rights activists
frequently receive information. These can be shared via an email to fellowships@ned.org.
We have included our
program flyers in several languages, along with further information
about our program below.
Please note that
individuals working for NED grantee organizations are eligible to apply
for NED fellowships in their individual capacity.
With appreciation and best wishes,

Call for Applications:
Reagan-Fascell Democracy Fellowships
Washington, D.C.
The Reagan-Fascell Democracy Fellows Program
at the Washington, D.C.-based National Endowment for Democracy invites
applications for fellowships in 2013-2014. This federally-funded 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. Dedicated to
international exchange, this five-month, residential program offers a
collegial environment for fellows to reflect on their experiences and
consider best practices; conduct independent research and writing;
engage with colleagues and counterparts in the United States; and
develop professional relationships within a global network of democracy
advocates.
The program is intended primarily to support
practitioners and scholars from developing and aspiring democracies;
distinguished scholars from established democracies are also eligible to
apply. Projects may focus on the political, social, economic, legal,
and cultural aspects of democratic development and may include a range
of methodologies and approaches. All fellows devote full-time to their
projects and receive a monthly fellowship payment, health insurance,
travel assistance at the beginning and end of their fellowship, and
research support. Awardees may not receive concurrent funding from the
Endowment or its family of institutes during the fellowshp period. The
program does not fund professional training, fieldwork, or students
working towards a degree. A working knowledge of English is required.
The
program will host two five-month fellowship sessions in 2013-2014: Fall
2013 (October 1, 2013-February 28, 2014) and Spring 2014 (March 1-July
31, 2014).
Deadline: Monday, October 15, 2012.
