Fellowships for Threatened Academics: Professors, Researchers and Lecturers

Application Deadline: 15 June 2009

The Institute of International Education's Scholar Rescue Fund (SRF)
provides fellowships for established scholars whose lives and work are
threatened in their home countries. These fellowships permit professors,
researchers and other senior academics to find temporary refuge at
universities and colleges anywhere in the world, enabling them to pursue
their academic work and to continue to share their knowledge with students,
colleagues, and the community at large.

When conditions improve, these scholars will return home to help rebuild
universities and societies ravaged by fear, conflict and repression. During
the fellowship, conditions in a scholar's home country may improve,
permitting safe return; if safe return is not possible, the scholar may use
the fellowship period to identify a longer-term opportunity.

Read our outreach message in Arabic, Farsi, French and Spanish; review
eligibility criteria; and download the application form:
