Freedom House is seeking three motivated candidates for the nine-month Freedom in the World. Each Junior Fellow will be hired to join Freedom House as a fixed-term, salaried employee, eligible for a generous benefits package. Junior Fellows will be responsible for managing the research for one of the six geographic regions covered by Freedom in the World. The Junior Fellows will have the opportunity to establish expertise on a specific region and will be called on to provide analysis of that region for internal use and potentially in response to media and other external queries. Through the fellowship program, Junior Fellows will also bolster their knowledge of global democracy using a comparative lens; build a network of external regional experts; develop crucial project management skills; and strengthen research and analysis skills.
Junior Fellows will receive an annualized salary of $42,000—amounting to a pre-tax, pre-deduction salary of $3,500 per month for nine months—and a generous benefits package.
