more than 900 young and mid-career people from over 40 countries
working for government, research institutions, civil society and the
private sector to pursue their professional development and improve
their career prospects. The total value of fellowships awarded to date
amounts to about US$5.2 million; the Programme supports mainly
short-term activities, such as participation in international
conferences, training courses and study tours, but also helps people
to prepare manuals and monographs and provides small grants for
post-graduate study.
