Dear Alvaro,
 
The MANRS (Mutually Agreed Norms for Routing Security) Fellowship Program 2021 is now accepting applications. If you are an emerging leader eager to improve the well-being of the Internet’s global routing system, apply now.
 
The program gives highly motivated individuals the chance to work alongside MANRS Ambassadors, industry leaders participating in the associated Ambassador Program that invited applications last month (details here).
 
Together, they will train diverse communities on good routing practices, analyze routing incidents, research into ways to secure routing, and survey the global policy landscape.
 
You can read about the 13 Fellows in last year’s inaugural program, which proved highly popular. The Internet Society supports this program as part of its work to reduce common routing threats and establish norms for network operations.
 
You can apply for a MANRS Fellowship in three different areas: training, research, and policy.
 
Each Fellow will receive a stipend of $750 a month. The program will start in mid-April and run for up to eight months. You can apply for more than one category but will only be selected for one of them.
