International Affairs Fellowship in Indonesia - Council on Foreign Relations
The International Affairs Fellowship (IAF) in Indonesia, sponsored by Yayasan Persahabatan Indonesia Amerika Serikat (Indonesia-USA Friendship Foundation), seeks to strengthen mutual understanding and cooperation between rising generations of leaders and thinkers in Indonesia and the United States. The program enables mid-career U.S. professionals to spend three to twelve months conducting research in Indonesia, developing a new professional network, and gaining deeper insights into the opportunities and challenges the country faces. Individuals from academia, business, government, journalism, NGOs, and think tanks are all encouraged to apply. Prior experience working in or writing about Indonesia is not required.
Eligibility
Applicants must be U.S. citizens.
Applicants must be mid-career professionals.
Applicants must have a strong record of professional achievement.
Applicants must have a demonstrated commitment to a career in foreign policy and have an interest in U.S.-Indonesia relations.
Applicants must hold at least a bachelor's degree.
Applicants must have a U.S. passport, valid through six months after the fellowship end date.
The program does not fund pre- or postdoctoral research, work toward a degree, or the completion of projects on which substantial progress has been made before the fellowship begins. Although the program is intended primarily for those without experience in Indonesia, applicants with experience will be considered if they can demonstrate that the fellowship would add a significant new dimension to their career. Knowledge of Indonesian (Bahasa Indonesia) or other local languages is not required.
Application Deadline is October 31, 2023.
