The call for individual fellowships is a project-based open call.

This way NIAS hopes to stimulate original research and a wide variety of perspectives.

Applicants fill in an online application form providing personal information, information about work & career and practical matters. In the same form, you upload a full proposal of  max 1500 words, which includes a description of the topic of your choice, its academic and societal relevance, and the added value of the interdisciplinary environment at NIAS. In addition, a c.v. and publication list need to be uploaded. Please also provide the names and contact details of four international experts in your field who could be approached as reviewers and who do not have a conflict of interest by reviewing your work.
