The Natolin Fellowship Programme, designed to support the European integration of Ukraine, Moldova, and Georgia, has successfully concluded. Over the past eight months, 11 Fellows from Ukraine, Moldova, and Georgia participated in this Programme, gaining valuable academic, professional, and networking opportunities.
Aimed at PhD students and recent graduates, the non-degree professional development programme provided a platform for research, skill-building, and engagement with European policies and institutions. The Fellows focused on key topics such as the European Union’s relations with its neighbours, the transformation of the Eastern Partnership (EaP), and regional cooperation among EaP countries.
During the Programme, the participants:
-
Updated their academic capacities through knowledge and skills-based modules;
-
conducted research on European integration and regional transformation;
-
attended international conferences, seminars, and training sessions;
-
gained hands-on experience through internships and traineeships;
-
expanded their professional networks in academia, policy, and diplomacy.
The Programme has played a crucial role in empowering young scholars and professionals to contribute to the development of their home countries while fostering closer ties with the European Union.
Our congratulations to our Fellows on successful completion of this journey! We believe that their dedication and hard work will undoubtedly contribute to the future development of Ukraine, Moldova, and Georgia.
