The Woodrow Wilson Center Fellowship 2023
The Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars provides different fellowship programs, including the residential fellowship program, for scholars and professionals in the humanities and social sciences. The Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars seeks to unite the world of ideas to the world of policy by assisitng pre-eminent scholarship and linking that scholarship to issues of concern to officials in Washington.
Congress instituted the Center in 1968 as the official, national memorial to President Wilson. Unlike the physical monuments in the nation’s capital, it is a living memorial whose work and scholarship commemorates “the ideals and concerns of Woodrow Wilson.” As both a distinguished scholar and national leader, President Wilson felt strongly that the scholar and the policymaker were “engaged in a common enterprise.”
Today the Center takes seriously his views on the necessity to bridge the gap between the world of ideas and public policy, bringing them into creative contact, enriching the work of both, and enabling each to learn from the other. This continuing dialogue between public policy and scholarship makes the Center unique.
In addition to its residential program, the Center conducts research through its programs, organizes conferences and seminars, and disseminates the content of its work and fellows’ research through its website and email marketing. The Center invites Fellows to take part in the Center’s conferences, meetings and seminars and to benefit from the wide range of dialogue that takes place at the Center.
