Applications for ICWA Fellowships are open for the year 2020. The Institute of World Current Affairs is looking for candidates with promise, curiosity, and enthusiasm who are ready for the rapid personal growth to apply for this Fully-funded ICWA Fellowships 2020 in the United States. The fellows will work on developing advanced knowledge and professional skills and do not need to have extensive professional experience in the proposed area. Strong candidates generally propose compelling fellowship topics.

Purpose

ICWA fellowship is a writing fellowship position. Fellows are liable to make monthly dispatches on the official website of the organization and email to institute supporters and other interested parties, including family, friends and professional associates of the fellows. Moreover, fellows work closely with the executive director, who serves as a writing coach, editor, and mentor.

While many fellows go on to pursue political or social causes at home and abroad, the purpose of a fellowship is to learn about other societies, not to change them. The institute does not accept any government funds and fellows must preserve that independence in letter and in spirit. The Institute of World Current affairs prohibits the engagement of fellows in overtly political activities during their fellowships.

Requirements
