UN OHCHR Minorities Fellowship Programme 2024 (Fully Funded to Geneva)
About the Fellowship Programme
Launched in 2005, the Minorities Fellowship Programme (MFP) is OHCHR’s most comprehensive training programme for human rights and minority rights defenders belonging to national or ethnic, religious, and linguistic minorities.
At the end of the MFP, the fellows should have a general knowledge of the United Nations system, international human rights instruments and mechanisms in general and those relevant to minorities in particular. Fellows should also be capable of further training their communities/organizations.
The Programme further serves as an opportunity for human rights activists working towards the protection and promotion of minority rights to expand their partners’ base. They do this by building a strategic dialogue with fellow activists from across the globe, the United Nations, and relevant Geneva-based NGOs, amongst other partners.
The Programme is offered in three linguistic components: English, Russian, and Arabic.
Benefits
The MFP takes place in Geneva, Switzerland. Fellows are entitled to:
- A return ticket (economy class) from the country of residence to Geneva;
- A basic health insurance for the duration of the Programme; and
- A stipend to cover modest accommodation and other living expenses for the duration
Applications are open until Friday, 8 December 2023.
