 - on behalf of the Judges, conduct legal research on a diverse range of assigned issues in international law and other areas of specialisation, such as international humanitarian law and procedural law, using multiple resource sources; 

- assist in the preparation of memoranda on legal/factual issues relevant for the cases s/he is assigned to; 

- perform other duties as assigned.

Each Fellow will receive a scholarship of €47,000 for one year, paid quarterly in advance. 

Fellows will be responsible for their own travel and housing expenses, as well as for any and all tax liabilities arising from the funding arrangement.
