2026 Churchill Fellowships

Applications are now open for Churchill Fellowships in 2026, and close on 20 April. 

Churchill Fellowships offer a diverse range of people from all walks of life an opportunity to travel overseas for four to eight weeks to explore a topic or issue that they are passionate about.

No prescribed qualifications are required in order to apply for a Churchill Fellowship, and the topics of proposed projects are limitless, provided a benefit to Australia and willingness to share findings with the Australian community is clearly evident.

Information about applying for a Churchill Fellowship, including Alternative Fellowship types, is available on the Churchill Trust website.
