Candidates must be between 24 and 40 years old, and fluent in written and spoken English. They should be law graduates with practical experience in the field of international law acquired by working for a public or private organisation or a university. The programme covers up to 24 fellowships, including travel costs in economy class, medical insurance, training material and the registration fee for The Hague Academy of International Law. Participants will also receive a stipend to cover their living expenses. Accommodation will be provided by the programme.
