Young professionals who have recently finished their Masters or Ph.D. studies in the field of social sciences are welcome to apply for a six-month-long fellowship at Institute Alternative.
During their work, young professionals will have an opportunity to engage in policy-relevant research under the mentorship of our research coordinator.
The final product of the research process will be a policy paper or a policy brief formulated within the framework of one of IA’s research areas.
