Call for Applications: Genocide and Atrocity Prevention Research Fellowships

The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum’s Simon-Skjodt Center for the Prevention of Genocide seeks applicants from early career scholars for its new Genocide and Atrocity Prevention Research Fellowships. The fellowships will provide support for policy-relevant research on the prevention or mitigation of mass atrocities.

Pre-doctoral and post-doctoral fellows will receive a financial award of $20,000 and $30,000, respectively, as well as round-trip travel expenses for one or two workshops in Washington, DC. The fellowship is non-residential.

Scholars can view more information about the fellowships—and how to apply—using this form.
