Refugee Fellows Program 2025 ($15,000 grant) Deadline: 15 May, 2025
Applications are open for the Refugee Fellows Program 2025. This unique fellowship focuses on enriching and supporting the existing advocacy efforts of emerging forcibly displaced leaders around the world. The 2025 cohort is tailored to maximize the growth of fellows and the impact of their work. The year-long program will ensure that fellows receive robust support for the advocacy goals they are pursuing. Refugees International is committed to providing the necessary tools, resources, and access to amplify refugee and displaced people’s voices and drive change in the advocacy landscape.
Fellows will be formally affiliated with Refugees International. They will collaborate closely with Refugees International staff to support their advocacy work. This may include a Refugees International report and/or other forms of analysis and advocacy—including externally published opinion pieces, events, direct advocacy with policy makers, participation in international donor and policy forums, and/or media interviews.
Fellows will partner with Refugees International staff through the fellowship program and benefit from peer-to-peer learning opportunities with other cohort members. Fellows will also receive formal training on advocacy and communication skills and strategies from Refugees International staff members and experts, in addition to opportunities for informal training.
Benefits
- Fellows will receive a $15,000 grant in four quarterly installments throughout the year, for working up to seven hours a week.
Eligibility
- Open to applicants from all countries. However, priority will be given to emerging forcibly displaced individuals working in regions, countries, and on themes that align with Refugees International’s current advocacy priorities. These may include contexts where Refugees International is actively engaged or where there are critical gaps in refugee and displacement-related advocacy that the organization seeks to address.
- English language competency is preferred for the ultimate success of the fellowship program so that fellows may engage with all aspects of Refugees International work and staff. Competency in other key advocacy and local languages also preferred.
- This is a remote program, so candidates must have their own computer and internet access to participate.
- Fellows must have a bank account to which the grant can be transferred in adherence with U.S. law.
Application
To apply, applicants must complete an application form and submit the following:
- Answers to two short-form questions (400 words each).
- A Resume.
