The McCloskey Fellowship commemorates the life and work of former Congressman Frank McCloskey, who dedicated himself to the advancement of peace and democracy in the Balkans. The fellowship supports a biennial exchange program between Indiana University and the countries of the former Yugoslavia.
McCloskey Fellows from the Balkans travel to the United States, for work on a project that addresses democratic change in the Balkans as scholars-in-residence at Indiana University. McCloskey Fellows from Indiana University travel to the Balkans to pursue internships or field research in the area. The McCloskey Fellowship is jointly administered by the National Democratic Institute and the Russian and East European Institute (REEI) at Indiana University.
