The Asia Studies Fellowship at the East-West Center in Washington, D.C.

The East-West Center (EWC) accepts applications from scholars and analysts who wish to undertake research and writing on topics of relevance to contemporary U.S.-Indo-Pacific policy. We are particularly interested in proposals regarding key challenges in U.S.-Indo-Pacific relations and possible responses and approaches to addressing those challenges. Specific topics of interest include but are not limited to: regional perspectives on trade negotiations with the United States, regional views of opportunities for the United States to engage in infrastructure development and regional connectivity; changes in relationships between Asian countries and their impact on the United States; and sustaining U.S. alliances and partnerships.

To facilitate this research and allow participants to engage with the resources and experts of the U.S. policy community, the Asia Studies Visiting Fellowship (ASVF) finances residencies for a period of three (3) months at the East-West Center in Washington in Washington, D.C. Exceptional proposals that justify up to six (6) months will be considered in rare circumstances if funds and space allow.

The fellowship includes a monthly stipend of US$2,500 to $5,000 (dependent upon experience) while in residence at the EWC in Washington; office space and accompanying resources; and round trip economy airfare to Washington, D.C.

Residency may begin as early as April 2019 and extend through September 2019. All fellowships must conclude by September 30. Fellows are responsible for securing their own housing and medical insurance coverage during their term of residency.
