The Netherlands Fellowship Programme (NFP) is intended to deepen and broaden the knowledge and professional skills of mid-career professionals to enable them to make a better contribution to the development of their organizations and their countries.
To be eligible for this fellowship, candidates should be able to submit proof of admission to the academic programme for which they are applying.
In addition, candidates should be working in a developing country (for the list of NFP countries visit www.nuffic.nl/nfp) in a development-related position, and be nominated by their employer, who pledges to continue payment of their salary and hold their job for them while they are studying in Thailand and the Netherlands.
For the programme that starts in August 2011 at AIT (Thailand), the application procedure for an NFP fellowship is as follows:
If you wish to apply for an NFP scholarship please keep in mind that there are two deadlines:
- An academic application deadline which is 24 January 2011;

UNESCO-IHE receives a message that you have applied for an NFP scholarship and will inform Nuffic whether or not you have been academically accepted. However, in order to do so, UNESCO-IHE needs to be in possession of your application for academic admission, therefore send your application form well in advance. Application for the NFP fellowship is possible in the period 1 November 2010 – 1 February 2011.
