The Milena Jesenská Fellowship Program, named after the Czech journalist, writer, and translator Milena Jesenská (1896-1944), offers European journalists time off from their professional duties in order to pursue in-depth research on a topic of their choice. The call is directed towards cultural journalists, with the term “cultural” being interpreted in a broad sense to encompass a wide variety of intellectual and artistic fields. However, applicants’ work may also deal with societal issues of European relevance and be related to one of IWM’s research fields.

During the next fellowship term (July 2015 – June 2016) four selected fellows will spend three months at the IWM, Institute for Human Sciences, in Vienna, Austria.

Fellowship
They fellows will receive a stipend of EUR 7,500. In addition, the IWM provides them with a personal office including access to internet, administrative and research facilities as well as other services free of charge. Travel grants of up to EUR 1,900 can be paid for project-related research trips.
