Description
The Gerda Henkel Foundation supports postdoctoral fellowships at New Europe College in Bucharest, Romania, and the Centre for Advanced Study in Sofia, Bulgaria, through its international fellowship programmes. Both institutes promote the humanities and social sciences and provide settings for intellectual exchange among scholars from their host countries and abroad.
New Europe College enables researchers to concentrate on projects of their own choosing while benefiting from debate and networking with peers rather than working in isolation. The Centre for Advanced Study Sofia participates in major international research projects, supports young scholars’ further development, and serves as a focal point for critical scholarly debate in Bulgaria. The partnerships reflect the Foundation’s commitment to international research collaboration.
