Maitri Fellowship Program 2023 - 24 Grant Opportunity
The Maitri Fellowships Program grant opportunity funding is available, each year, for three years from 2023-24 to 2025-26. The grant opportunity will fund the placement of experts working on foreign and trade policy issues (referred to from this point on as ‘Fellows’) in Australian and Indian academic and research institutions or ‘think tanks.’ The grant opportunity has three streams: long-term inward Fellowships (1-2 years) for Indian senior researchers (Level D – refer to guidelines) to come to Australia; long-term Fellowships allow for greater impact and deeper collaboration between senior research leaders, providing time for peer-review and publishing of written work. This funding stream will also support professional development of Professors through taking on a mentor role in the Centre’s Fellowship community. Short-term inward Fellowships (up to 6 months) for Indian early to mid-career researchers (Level A - C, refer to guidelines) to come to Australia; and short-term outward Fellowships (up to 6 months) for Australian early to mid-career researchers (Level A - C) to go to India. Short-term Fellowships will bring variety and institutional working level connections with Research Professors, enabling mentee-mentor partnerships. Funding mid-career professionals will boost experience in the Australia-India geoeconomic and geostrategic sector. By increasing expert experience, the grant round will elevate policy dialogue.
