Call for candidates – Roma Policy Research Fellowship
BCSP invites young Roma MA and PhD graduates in social sciences and humanities to apply for a great opportunity to gain first-hand experience in policy-relevant research, analysis, and advocacy.
Belgrade Centre for Security Policy (BCSP) is one of the possible host organizations of the Roma Policy Research Fellowship Program.
This fellowship gives an opportunity to young Roma researchers to gain first-hand research and advocacy experience in a leading think tank in their home country. It supports young Roma MA and PhD graduates in social sciences and humanities to develop new skills under the guidance of experienced research staff at mainstream think tanks. It is designed to facilitate the entry of young Roma researchers into the policy world as think tank professionals or as contributors to policy research and advocacy in other capacities. Аt the same time, the program aims to assist think tanks in taking on topics relevant for local minorities, recruiting new talent, and reaching out to new constituencies.
Individual programs at host organizations can start from July 2014. This commitment resembles a full-time paid internship for an initial period of six months.
The fellowship program is organized by the Think Tank Fund and the Roma Initiatives Office of the Open Society Foundations. To be considered for the Roma Policy Research Fellowship, applicants should submit the following documents in English:
- Motivation/cover letter
- Fellowship application form
- Curriculum Vitae (CV)
Candidates must fulfill the following requirements:
- Be of Roma origin
- Have graduated in the past three years from MA or PhD studies in economics, international relations and European integration studies, legal studies, political science, public policy and administration or sociology
- Demonstrate interest in social science research, without necessarily having previous experience with policy research and advocacy
