Harvard Fellowships for Persecuted and At-Risk Scholars, Artists, and Writers

The Scholars at Risk fellowship is intended to provide a safe environment for a scholar to pursue research and scholarly or artistic interests; it is not envisaged as an opportunity to mobilize political support on the issues giving rise to the scholar’s predicament (though such activity is not excluded). At present, Harvard’s Scholars at Risk fellowship, which lasts for a maximum of ten months, provides stipend, insurance coverage, and travel (depending on the location of the scholar and the number of dependents). At the end of the fellowship period, fellows will have to return to the home country or seek placement elsewhere. From the time of arrival, Harvard SAR engages with fellows to explore possibilities for next steps and to work towards securing accommodation for the post-fellowship year.
