The Center for European Policy Analysis (CEPA) is accepting applications for its Democracy Fellowship, a year-long in-residence fellowship program for highly qualified independent journalists, scholars, and activists from Russia who are no longer able to continue their work due to Putin’s war in Ukraine. The fellowship will provide a critical lifeline to support independent voices who have been forced to leave their country or face a direct threat to their lives because of their willingness and courage to write, research, and provide truthful information to educate the public and policymakers.

The Democracy Fellowship offers a monthly stipend to support Fellows’ research as well as travel and provide in-residence office space at CEPA’s headquarters in Washington. An overview of Democracy Fellowship Activities can be found here.
