CCP Fellowships 2027

The CrossCulture Programme (CCP) funds 50‑60 professionals and volunteers each year for two to three months of work with host organisations in Germany or partner countries. The 2027 edition is open to individuals aged 23 or older with at least two years of professional experience in civil‑society organisations. Applicants must not be students and must not receive other funding in the same year. The programme welcomes candidates from a wide range of fields, notably policy and society, media and culture, human rights and peace, and sustainable development and climate justice. Fellows receive a monthly stipend (650 EUR for participants from abroad, 1 200 EUR for German participants), round‑trip airfare, a public‑transport ticket, health insurance and visa‑fee reimbursement. The fellowship includes a 3‑4‑day transcultural workshop, networking events, mentoring, and access to the CCP alumni network. Applications are submitted online between 20 October 2026 and 8 December 2026; selected fellows will carry out their stay from May to November 2027.
