Applications are now being accepted for the Greek Diaspora Fellowship Program (GDFP) to support collaborative academic projects between Greek higher education institutions and Greek scholars in the diaspora. 
 
Process:  The GDFP has a two-sided application process: Greek universities submit a project request online to host a scholar, while the scholars submit applications to join a roster of available candidates.
 
Eligibility: Any degree-conferring higher education institution in Greece can serve as a host and submit a project request.
 
Scholars must be born in Greece or Cyprus, or hold Greek or Cypriot citizenship; live in the United States, Canada, Australia, South Africa or New Zealand; and work in an accredited college or university in one of those countries. Scholars must hold a terminal degree in their field and may hold any academic rank.
 
Benefits:  Greek Diaspora Fellows receive a $150 per day stipend, supplemental health insurance and roundtrip international airfare.  Project materials allowance may also be requested to support activities at the host institution.
 
Activities: Greek host institutions can request that the scholar participate in projects in curriculum co-development, collaborative research and/or graduate or undergraduate student research mentoring and teaching.
 
Timeline:  The deadline to receive both scholar applications and host institution project requests is July 31, 2019.  Selection decisions for Cycle 3 will be made in November 2019; project visits will take place in 2020.
