Thirty (30) UNESCO fellowships are being made available to developing Member States by the Polish National Commission for UNESCO and the UNESCO Chair for Science, Technology, and Engineering at the AGH University of Krakow (Poland) in order to support human resource capacities in developing countries and to foster international understanding and friendship among nations and peoples.

The recipients of these fellowships will have the chance to work on a private research project in the fields of science, technology, and engineering for a period of six months, starting on October 1, 2024, and ending on March 31, 2025.

Visa
Before departing, fellows from nations with Polish embassies or consulates must receive their entry visa to Poland. Fellows from nations without an embassy or consulate of that kind must obtain their visas through the Republic of Poland's closest embassy or consulate.

Neither UNESCO nor the Polish government reimburse for the cost of obtaining a passport or a visa. The fellows are responsible for obtaining their own visas.
