Description

The Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) is seeking applications for its Indigenous Fellowship Programme (IFP) 2018, a comprehensive human rights training programme that was established by the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) in the context of the first International Decade of the World’s Indigenous Peoples (1995-2004).

The programme contributes to build the capacity and expertise of indigenous representatives on the UN system and mechanisms dealing with human rights in general and indigenous issues in particular, so they are in a better position to protect and promote the rights of their communities at the international level.

The aim of the programme is to give indigenous persons the opportunity to gain knowledge on the UN system and mechanisms dealing with human rights issues in general and indigenous issues in particular. The IFP is held annually and fellows from the 4 language components of the programme are trained together with simultaneous interpretation during 4 to 5 weeks in Geneva.

Fellowship

Participants of the Fellowship Programme are entitled to the following:

  • Return ticket (economy class) from their country of residence to Geneva;
  • Daily or monthly stipend to cover their basic needs in Geneva, including modest accommodation, food and transport;
  • Basic health insurance for the duration of the Programme;
  • OHCHR will not cover any additional expenses such as visa fees and travel insurance.

Eligibility 

  • The candidate must be indigenous (non-indigenous persons will not be taken into consideration, even if they have close links with indigenous communities and/or organizations);
  • Age should not be a limitation to participation in the programme;
  • Formal education should not be a limitation to participation in the IFP given the socio-economic barriers confronted by many indigenous peoples that limit access to formal educational institutions;
  • Candidates should agree to train other indigenous persons after the return to their respective communities/organizations;
  • The candidate should be proposed and his/her candidacy supported by his/her indigenous organization and/or community. It is desirable that the sponsoring organization has a firm constituency or membership and that it is representative;
  • The candidate should have a good working knowledge of the language, in which the programme is imparted.

How to Apply?

Application form must be signed and sent by regular post at the address given on the website.
