Ed A. Hewett Policy Fellowship

Support research on the New Independent States (NIS) of the former Soviet Union and/or Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) conducted by an individual scholar under the auspices of a US government agency. Applicants must hold a Ph.D. in any discipline of the humanities and social sciences, with a concentration and considerable background in some aspect of the history, culture, politics, and economics of the countries of the NIS and CEE. The Council generally requires applications that include a written agreement with a US government agency, stating that the agency is willing to provide placement and office space and equipment for the project.
