Deadline: 14-Feb-23
Applications are now open for the Warsaw Fellowship.
The 2023 Warsaw Fellowship will examine Poland’s failing democracy in the context of human rights violations and hate speech. They will also learn strategies of resistance from a vibrant civil society. Now, more than ever, they need to stand up for human rights!
Ever since the conservative Law and Justice party gained power in 2015, Poland has been in a perpetual state of emergency, suspending human rights and targeting minorities. For the second year in a row, Poland has ranked lowest in the European Union for protection of LGBTQ+ rights. In late 2020, Poland has imposed a near total ban on abortion, prompting hundreds of thousands of women and their allies to protest Europe’s most restrictive abortion law. Independent media and judiciary continue to be undermined.
Eligibility Criteria
