Description
In October 2016 the UNESCO Institute for Lifelong Learning (UIL) will
offer six CONFINTEA Fellowships for a period of one month to government
officials and representatives of civil society organizations working in key
positions within the field of adult learning and education (ALE) in UNESCO
Member States.
The Fellowship Programme aims at strengthening the
capacities of Member States in implementing major elements of the Belém
Framework for Action (BFA) and therefore Fellows are selected on the basis
of their potential to develop national strategies in their respective
countries. Producing such a draft national strategy is the key expected
output of the programme.
UIL will provide each Fellow with a workstation and
access to the Institute’s resources, in particular its library’s unique
collection. In addition, Fellows will have the opportunity to exchange
knowledge with other Fellows, UIL staff and external partners. The CONFINTEA
Fellows will receive input and assistance from UIL staff, but should also be
prepared to work on their own initiative.
Eligibility
Applicants for CONFINTEA Fellowships should:
Have extensive experience – whether in
government or civil society or as a researcher – in the field of adult
learning and education (ALE);
Be involved in formulating policies or planning and
implementing programmes at the national level (involvement in
national activities related to the follow-up of CONFINTEA VI would be an
asset);
Have a good command of MS Office;
Have fluent spoken and written English and,
ideally, a working knowledge of another United Nations language.
Fellowship
UNESCO Institute
for Lifelong Learning (UIL) will arrange and pay for health
insurance, a return economy ticket to Hamburg and accommodation close
to the Institute. A lump sum to cover living and miscellaneous
expenses will be paid upon arrival.
How to apply?
Applicants must submit the following documents:
A written proposal for a national ALE strategy in line
with the Belém Framework for Action (max. 3 pages);
An up-to-date curriculum vitae;
A cover letter.
Email applications should be sent to the CONFINTEA Fellowship
focal point, Ms Angela Owusu-Boampong, at: a.owusu-boampong@unesco.org latest
by 30 June 2016.
