The programme, which is under the patronage of the German Chancellor, allows the fellows to carry out a project of their own design in cooperation with a German host. It also incorporates an intensive language course in Germany, a four-week introductory seminar in Bonn and Berlin, a study trip around Germany and a final meeting in Berlin. These activities provide additional insights into the social, cultural, economic and political life of Germany.
