Description

  The Global Leaders Fellowship Programme, at Oxford and Princeton, offers fellowships in
  world politics and political economy for holders of a doctorate who are nationals of
  a developing country.  Up to six fellowships, with appropriate stipends sufficient to cover full

  with the purposes of the GLF programme;
- Evidence of outstanding analytical and research skills;
- Evidence of a clearly articulated research project which contributes broadly to our understanding of

   particularly in global politics - for dealing with the effects of globalisation in ways which benefit their
   populations.

- A current CV;
- A one-page covering letter;
