The Humphrey Fellowship Program is designed for professionals interested in strengthening their leadership skills through a mutual exchange of knowledge and understanding about issues of common concern in the U.S. and the Fellows’ home countries. The closing date for the applications is October 1, although the deadlines vary by country.

The fellowship is available for citizens of all countries.
