(ALL) Call for Applications for Residencies at the Rockefeller Foundation Bellagio Center in Italy
Through residencies and conferences, the Rockefeller Foundation Bellagio Center, in Northern Italy, supports innovations that change the way we solve global problems. Here people of diverse expertise and backgrounds come together in a thought-provoking, creative, collegial environment that helps create change on a wide range of world issues.
The Residency Program allows for one-month of focused work, uninterrupted by the professional and personal demands of daily life, in a diverse and stimulating community of fellow residents. Residents include an international cohort of scholars, writers, artists, scientists, journalists, non-governmental organization practitioners and policymakers. In addition to time for work on creative projects, writing, or reflection during the day, building new connections and collegial interaction with other residents is an integral dimension of the Bellagio experience. Meals and informal presentations of residents' work afford an opportunity for dynamic discussion and engagement with each other. The combination of quiet time for individual, focused work and connections with such a diverse cohort is unparalleled.
Residencies typically last four weeks, and spouses/life partners may accompany residents. Joint applications from co-authors are also welcome.
Applications for scholars’ and artists’ residencies are due by May 2, 2011, for residencies scheduled between February and August 2012. (Residency applications will be due on December 1, 2011, for the residency period of August through December 2012.)
Applications from practitioners and for conferences are accepted on a rolling basis. To apply, and for more information, please visit http://www.
