The Hrant Dink Foundation is launching the new term of the Turkey-Armenia Fellowship Scheme in cooperation with Gyumri Youth Initiative Centre NGO with a view to promote experience sharing between two countries.

 The 2020-2021 term of the Fellowship Scheme is implemented within the framework of the programme Support to the Armenia-Turkey Normalisation Process: Stage 3 supported by the European Union.

The programme will support the activities of 8 experts from Armenia and Turkey in total the opportunity to live and follow a special programme at a specific Host Organisation in the neighbouring country for one month between April 2020 and July 2021 in such fields as academia, civil society, media, culture and arts, law, health, economy, information technologies and many others in which cooperation is much needed. 51 organisations from Turkey and 30 organisations from Armenia proposed programmes for the applicants.

Any applicant who has an independent project apart from the ones suggested by the listed host organisations, and organisations that are willing to host a fellow, are encouraged to contact the Hrant Dink Foundation. The call will be open until 8 fellows have been selected for the programme. Since the evaluation of the applications will start as soon as the applications are sent, early applications are encouraged. The fellowship activities will take place between April 2020 and July 2021.
