We are seeking your assistance in circulating information on the United Nations – the Nippon Foundation of Japan Fellowship Programme, a fully funded research Fellowship for developing State ocean professionals. The main objective of the Fellowship is to provide advanced education and training in the field of ocean affairs and the law of the sea, and related disciplines, to government officials and other mid-level professionals from developing States. We are pleased to note that during the last seven years, 70 awards have been made to nationals of 55 States.
Successful candidates will undertake their research/studies in two back-to-back phases: the first, lasting six months, with a participating academic host institution; and the second, lasting three months, with the Division for Ocean Affairs and the Law of the Sea (DOALOS), UN Office of Legal Affairs, or an appropriate participating host institution. The Fellowship application deadline is 15 September 2011, and candidates should forward their applications directly to DOALOS. Successful candidates will be expected to begin their placements early in 2012.
Additional information, including the application package, detailed application instructions, and a list of participating host institutions, is available on the Fellowship website:www.un.org/depts/los/nippon
