The Institute of Current World Affairs (ICWA) is a prestigious organization based in Washington, DC that aims to enhance American understanding of international cultures and affairs. For over 90 years, ICWA has been sending exceptional young professionals on two-year independent writing fellowships to study countries, regions, and globally significant issues. Through its unique cultural immersion program, fellows are given the opportunity to explore the world, develop deep insights, and produce monthly dispatches that contribute to their respective fields.
ICWA alumni have gone on to become influential figures in journalism, academia, diplomacy, activism, and business, shaping America's role in the world with wisdom, foresight, and compassion. The institute seeks critical thinkers who can offer new perspectives and navigate the complexities of our highly globalized world. With a focus on self-designed programs of travel, thought, and writing, ICWA provides fellows with the time and resources to make vital contributions to their fields and foster a deep understanding that future generations will need to ensure America's informed engagement with the world.
