The ADB Visiting Fellow especially encourages applications from women and from developing member countries.

About ADB Visiting Fellow Program

Visiting program of the Asian Development Bank is an amazing opportunity for youth, and is intended to bring together diverse and extraordinary minds. ERCD (Economic Research and Regional Cooperation Department) applicants will be reviewed monthly by an ERCD selection committee chaired by ADB's Chief Economist, who will make the final selection.

Under the program, two methods will be used for selecting applicants:

1. ADB will evaluate applications based on the applicant's background and expertise, as well as the quality and relevance of their research
2. In special situations, when the ERCD deems that it is necessary to identify specific individuals with specific expertise, this modality will be used.

Applicants will be reviewed three times a year. A response will be provided a month after the end of each quarter (e.g., by 31 July for applications received in the second quarter). Your application was not considered if you do not hear from us within 1 month after the calendar quarter when it was sent.
