Escolhas Fellowship
of Economics and Environment

The Escolhas Fellowship of Economics and Environment fosters research on contemporary and global socioenvironmental issues with focus on an economic sciences approach.

The Escolhas Fellowship is the only scholarship program for postgraduate economic sciences students who study socioeconomical development and its relations with the environment in Brazil. Recently, the Fellowship became exclusive for researchers proceeding from the Legal Amazonia with priority for Indigenous and Afro-descendants at the beginning of their master’s degree studies.
