About the Organization

Chatham House helps people, societies and governments to understand and adapt to change.

We provided thought leadership on the issues that defined the 20th century. We helped craft the multilateral institutions and mechanisms of global financial stability after the Second World War.

We gave African independence leaders a platform throughout decolonization. We were key to Anglo-Soviet track-two diplomacy initiatives. Our research influenced China to establish low-carbon economic zones. The Chatham House Rule has helped foster open dialogue and idea-sharing.

About the Fellowship

This fellowship is a joint initiative with Richard and Susan Hayden. It offers candidates at the early-to-mid-stage of their career the opportunity to spend ten months at Chatham House working on an individual research project of their choosing.

Fellows take part in the core work of the Institute, developing their skills through the leadership programme, and furthering their professional network in the field of international affairs.

A fellow’s time is split between three key areas:

• Completing a personal research project: the fellow chooses and design an individual project to undertake with the guidance of a Chatham House expert (approximately 60%).
• Contributing to the ongoing research activities: working with their host research team and other Chatham House teams as appropriate, fellows contribute to existing research priorities in line with the Chatham House mission (approximately 20%).
• Leadership Masterclass Programme: it is a key part of all fellowships. It aims to develop fellows’ knowledge, network, self-awareness and to equip them with important skills on which they can draw in their future careers as leaders in their field (approximately 20%).

Eligibility

• The fellowship is open to all nationalities.
• Applicants must hold a completed BA degree or equivalent and have experience with conducting research.
• The ideal candidate should be at the early-to-mid-stage of their career and come from one of the following fields or work: academia, NGO, business, government departments, civil society or the media. All applicants should possess knowledge of, and an interest in, international affairs, their chosen area of research, and Chatham House’s mission and research.
• We do not impose age restrictions for applicants.
• Fellows are expected to work full-time towards their fellowship and therefore it is not possible to undertake a fellowship at the same time as pursuing work or studies.
