Description
The Rajawali Foundation Institute for Asia Fellows Program at Harvard Kennedy School brings visiting scholars and practitioners together to conduct independent research on Asian public policy issues relevant to the institute. The program seeks candidates who share its commitment to rigor, curiosity, integrity, and respect for diverse perspectives, lived experiences, and research and policy approaches.
Fellows participate in monthly research seminars featuring speakers from within and outside Harvard Kennedy School, alongside bi-weekly workshops for presenting academic work in progress and connecting with scholars across greater Boston. The fellowship provides access to Harvard’s academic resources and opportunities to interact with degree-seeking students with overlapping research interests and professional backgrounds.
