During the course of their residencies, Fellows direct a policy initiative, such as a Task Force, Study Group, or policy research project.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Additionally, the Asia Society relies on Fellows to provide in-house expertise via the media.<\/strong> Opportunities for Fellows to present their work and\/or participate in panel discussions, conferences, and other events at the Society&#8217;s Centers in the United States and Asia are also arranged. In these ways, Fellows play an important role in the Society&#8217;s mission of advancing policy research and public education on Asia.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The application process is highly competitive.<\/strong> Candidates are drawn from the fields of government, academia, journalism, business, and civil society. Nominations are by invitation or by application. The defining qualifications for Bernard Schwartz Fellows are a solid record of distinction, a soundly conceived project proposal with clear policy relevance, and a commitment to engaging the policy community and the broader public. The Program does not fund pre- or postdoctoral research or work toward a degree.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Asia Society is reaching out to our supporters as we seek nominations and applications for the 2011-12 Bernard Schwartz Fellows (Fall 2011 to Fall 2012).<\/strong> Interested applicants who meet the profile and qualifications outlined above should send a cover letter outlining their proposed project, along with a detailed curriculum vitae, with the subject line <strong>&#8220;2011-12 Schwartz Fellow Application&#8221;
