Chatham House is inviting applications from citizens of Cameroon, Cote d’Ivoire, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Ethiopia, Uganda, Mozambique and Zambia for the Mo Ibrahim Foundation Academy Fellowship in the Queen Elizabeth II Academy for Leadership in International Affairs.
Applicants are required to have at least completed a BA degree or equivalent; Masters degree with an international focus is preferred. Applications will also be accepted from applicants holding dual nationality which includes one of the listed countries.
The fellowship is for a 10-month term from mid-September 2019 to late-July 2020. Fellows will be based full-time at Chatham House, London and will receive a monthly stipend of £2,295. Modest provision is made for the costs of relocation, fieldwork, and possible publication costs.
