National Endowment for Democracy (NED), USA

Non Degree

National Endowment for Democracy (NED), USA

November 1, 2011

The Reagan-Fascell Democracy Fellows Program is an international exchange program that offers practitioners, scholars, and journalists from around the world the opportunity to spend five months at the National Endowment for Democracy (NED), in Washington DC, in order to un-dertake independent research on democracy in a particular country or region.

While in residence, fellows reflect on their experiences; conduct research and writing; consider best practices and les-sons learned; and develop professional relationships within a global network of democracy advo-cates.

Eligibility:
While the program is intended primarily for individuals from developing and aspir-ing democracies, distinguished scholars from the United States and other established democra-cies are eligible to apply. Practitioners and journalists are expected to have substantial work ex-perience in their fields, while scholars are expected to have a Ph.D., or academic equivalent, at the time of application.

The program does not support professional training, fieldwork, or stu-dents working toward a degree, nor does it provide funding to implement projects in the field. A working knowledge of English is required.
