3 Intercountry Lecturing Awards | Fulbright

The Fulbright Intercountry Lecturing Awards provides US scholars while in Europe with opportunities to enrich their professional and cultural experience outside of their country of assignment.

The Fulbright Foundation in 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.

The United States Educational Foundation in Greece (The Fulbright Foundation) will offer up to three Intercountry Lecturing grants for the 2013-2014 academic year. The final number may change, according to demand and funding.
