International Affairs Fellowship in India Application Deadline: October 31, 2020

The Program:
The International Affairs Fellowship (IAF) in India, with a grant contributed by Bharti, seeks to strengthen mutual understanding and cooperation between rising generations of leaders and thinkers in the United States and India. The program provides for one to four mid-career U.S. professionals who have had little or no substantial prior experience in India, the opportunity to spend three to twelve months conducting research and working in India. Fellows are drawn from academia, business, government, journalism, NGOs, and think tanks. While there, fellows develop a new professional network as well as gain fresh insights and perspectives into the country and the opportunities and challenges that confront the region. CFR will work with its network of contacts to assist selected fellows in finding suitable host organizations that best match the fellow’s proposed work in India. Possible placements include but are not limited to CFR’s local partner, the Centre for Policy Research; the Institute for Defense Studies and Analyses; or the Institute for Financial Management and Research.
