Description: |
The Foundation can award one fellowship per year to a visiting fellow. The regular Trudeau fellowship's criteria of excellence and engagement also apply to the visiting fellowship. However, the visiting fellow's affiliation to the host institution is different: the selected candidate is invited to take part in the host university's activities for a residency period of approximately one year in the course of the three-year fellowship tenure. The Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation fellowships provide:
Support from an outstanding community of scholars, fellows and mentors, and opportunities for interaction with 350 leaders and personalities in every sector of the humanities and social sciences;
Involvement in lively exchanges with other researchers and policy makers;
The opportunity to contribute to public dialogue and share innovative ideas at events organized by or in conjunction with the Foundation;
A $150,000 allowance over three years for research, travel and networking;
A $50,000 award;
A $25,000 allowance to cover the cost of participation in Foundation events. |
