The Fulbright U.S.-ASEAN Visiting Scholar Initiative is open to university faculty, foreign ministry or other government officials, and professional staff of the private sector, think tanks, and other NGOs in the ASEAN member states to travel to the United States for scholarly and professional research for three to four months on issues of priority to the U.S.-ASEAN relationship.
Nominations will be accepted from all ASEAN member states, the U.S. Embassy in Hanoi said in a press release on Monday.
