Intercountry Lecturing Awards
Overview and Guidelines
The Fulbright Intercountry Lecturing Awards provides U.S. scholars while in Europe with opportunities to enrich their professional and cultural experience outside of their country of assignment. Fulbright Greece participates in the Intercountry Lecturer Awards, which provides Greek institutions an opportunity to invite Fulbright grantees from nearby countries in Europe to lecture in Greece.
Fulbright Greece will offer up to three Intercountry Lecturing grants for the 2022-2023 academic year. The final number may change, according to demand and funding.
The Intercountry Lecturing grants provide for regional visits of 2-4 days, by U.S. Fulbright Scholars, to lecture and or conduct seminars or workshops in a nearby country that has a Fulbright Program. These visits are designed to foster international academic networking and promote professional development.
Intercountry Lecturing grants can be awarded to (A) U.S. Fulbright grantees who are in Greece to make short visits to nearby European countries, and to (B) U.S. Fulbright grantees who are in nearby European countries to make short visits to Greece.
