The Reagan-Fascell Democracy Fellowship is a fully-funded program for activists, journalists, civil society leaders, and scholars from all over the world to spend five months in residence at the National Endowment for Democracy (NED). The exchange program in Washington allows fellow participants to undertake independent research on the global democratic developments and to undergo research in a particular country or region. The Reagan-Fascell fellowship also provides the opportunity to the participants to learn advanced skills and expertise from International Forum for Democratic Studies. The 5-month fully-funded international fellowship in the USA is for the practitioners as well as for the scholars. To gain all the productive experiences, the National Endowment for Democracy Fellowship ensures the engagement of the fellows, the availability of the resources to conduct research and writing, and the opportunity to develop professional relationships and allow networking with democracy advocates.
The NED democracy fellowship is based on many academic and recreational events which help the participants to gain knowledge about the work of Endownment and its other related institutions. The events include seminars, roundtable conferences, field trips, sports, museum trips, movies and happy hours, etc. All these events are to educate the fellows about education concerning democracy and to promote a sense of collaboration among the fellows.
The Reagan-Fascell democracy fellowship deals with specific democracy-related projects. The NED fellows are expected to work on projects that are based on NED proposed projects. The projects of practitioners as well as scholars must be focused on the political, social, economic, legal, and cultural dimensions of democratic developments. The project may also be based on a wide range of methodologies and approaches. As NED has a mission to support freedom around the world, the potential candidates who feel themselves the proponent of democratic values and its propagation must not miss the chance to apply in the Reagan-Fascell Democracy Fellowship program.
