Deadline: 6 October 2023
The Max Planck Institute for Comparative Public Law and International Law invites applications for the MPIL Journalist in Residence Fellowship 2024, offering the opportunity to engage with an international academic community and to gain deeper insights into fundamental questions and current problems of international law, European Union law, and public law, without the high pressure of daily deadlines on a freely chosen project.
The Fellowship enables journalists with several years of experience to spend three months in 2024 at the Institute. The time and duration of the stay (between March and November 2024) will be agreed individually.
MPIL Journalists in Residence are free to pursue their own research. They are encouraged to take advantage of the opportunity to exchange ideas with the researchers and to participate in the various work and discussion formats.
The Institute provides desk space and access to all research resources of the Institute’s library.
The Fellowship is geared towards freelance and staff journalists from all media (print, online, radio, television) who report and write regularly on legal and constitutional topics, or topics from politics, the economy, and research.
Funding Information
- A monthly research grant up to 3.500€, based on the fellows qualifications and experience, is offered for the duration of the stay.
