The Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs at the Harvard Kennedy School invites applications for their Arctic Initiative Fellowship. The fellowships are open to predoctoral candidates, recent recipients of a PhD or equivalent degree, visiting scholars, seasoned practitioners, and researchers at the junior faculty level.

Fellows are expected to pursue research that relates to the priorities of the Arctic Initiative: addressing the challenges and opportunities associated with the rapid transformation of the Arctic. A special focus is on exploring to what extent existing governmental and international policies, programs, laws, and regulations are adequate and appropriate to address the evolving challenges and opportunities in the Arctic, and to consider how they can be improved.

The 2025-2026 academic year will prioritize policy-focused proposals on:

  • Advancing Sustainable Ocean Management,
  • Permafrost Thaw, and
  • Resilience in the Far North.

Application deadline: 1 December 2024
