About Alexander von Humboldt Foundation International Climate Protection Fellowship 2022

This fellowship for prospective leaders brings you to Germany for one year to implement a project idea you have developed yourself. We will help you network with international future leaders here to find new answers to the global issues of our time.

• Work in a field such as politics, business, media, administration, society or culture and have demonstrable initial leadership experience.

• Will have completed your first academic degree (Bachelor or comparable degree) no more than twelve years ago. The key date for calculating this twelve-year period is 1 October of the year in which the selection is made.

• Want to conduct an independently developed project with a host of your choice in Germany.

• Have good knowledge of English and/or German.
