The Eurac Institute for Comparative Federalism has convened the Federal Scholar in Residence Programme for researchers working on comparative federalism, multilevel governance or intergovernmental relations matters.

Applicants must hand in an unpublished manuscript on comparative federalism, regionalism or intergovernmental relations in English, German, Italian, French or Spanish by 1 July 2020 and be ready to present their findings in English in seminars both at Eurac Research and at neighboring partner universities.

The winner of the Federal Scholar in Residence Programme is granted a research stay of up to 3 weeks at the Institute for Comparative Federalism. Although the winner can flexibly plan their stay, the month of February 2021 would represent a particularly good opportunity to develop new ideas while profiting from the international research environment of the renowned Winter School on Federalism and Governance. The yearly Programme welcomes both academics and practitioners to the Institute for Comparative Federalism at Eurac Research, located in Bolzano, South Tyrol (Northern Italy).
