The Western Balkans–Visegrad Fellowships allow WB6 citizens to apply for short-term fellowships at V4 research institutions (in Czechia, Poland, Hungary, or Slovakia). Reciprocally, V4 applicants can apply for fellowships at WB6 institutions (in Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Kosovo, or Serbia).
 

The fellowships are provided for a limited period ranging from 2 to 10 weeks during which the respective fellow is to conduct or participate in research, hold lectures or seminars at a higher-education level, or study or review specific sets of written or other materials available in public archives or libraries.
