Global Challenges Fellowship

mate purpose of forging closer ties between Western and non-Western researchers and offering fresh perspectives on some of the world’s most pressing public policy challenges, challenges which can only be resolved together. The fellows will spend a total of approximately 7-8 months as Global Challenges Fellows (GCF) doing analytical and empirical work in Budapest, and engaging with policy practitioners at GPPi in Berlin. While the exact timetable depends on the specifications of each research project, the majority of time (about 75%) will be spent in Budapest. The program will support two junior and two senior Fellows per year. They will publish journal articles and/or policy papers and will participate in a series of small working group-style discussions and seminars. Fellows will work within one of the following focal research areas:

Peace & security
Humanitarian assistance & human rights
Development & good governance
Internet governance
Changing global institutions
