Fellows will spend 20 hours per week contributing to existing GEGI research and 20 hours per week on their own independently-led projects, while receiving guidance and support from their supervising mentor.

International candidates must obtain express approval from their sponsoring institution confirming that they are permitted to earn income from another institution. This requirement is especially important for scholars on a J-1 visa. If you do not currently hold a valid U.S. scholar visa, you may be eligible for J-1 sponsorship through Boston University. It is therefore essential to discuss visa eligibility and requirements in detail before accepting a fellowship at the Boston University GDP Center.<\/span><\/p>\n Sansan Vincent de Paul Kambou<\/p>\n\t\t Pre-doctoral Research Fellow, Global Economic Governance Initiative<\/p>\t<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n Harry Deng<\/p>\n\t\t Pre-doctoral Research Fellow, Global Economic Governance Initiative<\/p>\t<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n Lin Shi<\/p>\n\t\t Post-doctoral Research Fellow, Global Economic Governance Initiative<\/p>\t<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n Ana Mar\u00eda Trujillo<\/p>\n\t\t Pre-doctoral Research Fellow, Global Economic Governance Initiative<\/p>\t<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\t<\/div>\n\n Praveena Bandara<\/p>\n\t\t Post-doctoral Research Fellow, Global Economic Governance Initiative<\/p>\t<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n Farrah Brown<\/p>\n\t\t Research Scientist<\/p>\t<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n Manuel Cruz<\/p>\n\t\t Post-doctoral Research Fellow, Global Economic Governance Initiative<\/p>\t<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n Kofi Gunu<\/p>\n\t\t Post-doctoral Research Fellow, Global Economic Governance Initiative<\/p>\t<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n Nabil Haque<\/p>\n\t\t Former Post-doctoral Research Fellow, Global Economic Governance Initiative<\/p>\t<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n Niccol\u00f2 Manych<\/p>\n\t\t Former Post-doctoral Research Fellow, Global Economic Governance Initiative<\/p>\t<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n Nathalie Tellez Marins<\/p>\n\t\t Post-doctoral Research Fellow, Global Economic Governance Initiative<\/p>\t<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Applications are closed for the 2026\/2027 Global Economic Governance Fellows Program.
