2025 UN Human Rights Minorities Fellowship Programme opens for applications
Inaugurated in 2005, the Minorities Fellowship Programme (MFP) is OHCHR’s flagship training initiative, dedicated to empowering human rights defenders from national, ethnic, religious, and linguistic minority communities.
This comprehensive programme not only equips activists with vital knowledge on human and minority rights, but also offers a platform to expand their network of allies. Participants gain the opportunity to engage in strategic dialogue with fellow activists worldwide, as well as key partners from the United Nations, Geneva-based NGOs, and other global organizations—all united in their commitment to advancing minority rights.
More information on eligibility and the selection process can be found here or through the link to the applications forms.
