About the Woodrow Wilson International Center Fellowship Program 2021-2022
The Woodrow Wilson International Center was established by Congress in 1968 as the national memorial to President Wilson to memorialize his ideals. The Center advocates his views on the need to fill the gap between the world of ideas and public policy.
The Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars Fellowship Program is focused on reconciling the world of ideas to the world of policy by promoting pre-eminent scholarship and connecting that scholarship to issues of concern to officials in Washington.
The Center grants up to 15-20 residential fellowships annually.
The Center will grant preference to proposals addressing these areas:
Great Powers Game On: Competition and Cooperation
World Disorder: Challenges to Democratic Values and the Rule of Law
Brave New Digital World: Governance, Commerce, and Security
Emerging Polar Landscapes: Security and Commerce in a Changing Environment
All applications will be reviewed by the Fellowship Committee of the Board of Trustees on the basis of:
Significance, importance, and originality of the proposed research
The relevance of the project to modern policy issues
The relevance of the project to the programmatic work of the Center
Quality of the proposal in definition, organization, clarity, and scope
Capabilities and achievements of the applicant and the likelihood that the applicant will accomplish the proposed project
Potential of a candidate to actively contribute to the life, priorities, and mission of the Center by making expert research accessible to a broader audience
