The Fellowships are jointly offered by UNESCO and L'ORÉAL, as
part of the For Women In Science Programme, to support and promote women
in scientific research all over the world.

The international Fellowships are awarded to promising young women
scientists, at the doctoral or postdoctoral level, to undertake a
research project in the life sciences which has been accepted by a
reputable institution outside their home country. 15 international
Fellowships are awarded each year. Each Fellowship is worth a maximum of
US$40,000 to cover a research period of up to 24 months. The Fellowship
beneficiaries are geographically spread, three Fellows being selected
from each of the following regions: Africa; Arab States; Asia & the
Pacific; Europe & North America; and Latin America & the Caribbean.
