Fellowships are designed for leading members of civil society and researchers from Eastern Europe and Central Asia to conduct intensive research, writing and networking. We bring fellows from the region to Prague to focus on their projects in a safe space, away from the daily routine of their organisations and pressures in their home countries, including the hardships and dangers of war in the case of Ukrainians.

The range of fellows and types of projects we support are diverse, including journalists, lawyers, entrepreneurs, activists and former political prisoners working on everything from articles and books to films and comic strips.
