IASS Call for Applications to 2021 Fellow Programme

The IASS Fellow Programme is inspired by the Potsdam Memorandum’s call to gather all sources of ingenuity and inspiration from academia, politics, business and civil society to address the sustainability challenges of our time. A key resource for the institute, the fellows support our research, improve our transdisciplinary methodology, and, together with our researchers, reach out to political, economic and civil society actors. More than 230 fellows from over 40 countries have worked at the IASS since 2010. You can find a list of current and former fellows here.

For the intake year 2021, the IASS is looking for individuals from academia, public administration, civil society, and culture, who can contribute to the institute’s six research areas:

• Democratic Transformations
• Energy Systems and Societal Change
• Forums: Science, Policy and Society
• Governance for the Environment and Society
• Systemic Interdependencies: Technology, Nature, Society
• Perceptions, Values, Orientation

Applications should be geared to one of these six areas.

The Fellow Programme is aimed at highly qualified individuals from all areas of society, who are willing to share their expertise and provide inspiration and creative input during their stay at the IASS. All applications will be reviewed by the Board of Directors and external reviewers before the final selection is presented to the IASS Advisory Board. The application form and further information on terms and conditions can be found here.
