The structure of the programme consists of two phases: a three-month training phase with OLA/DOALOS at United Nations Headquarters in New York; and immediately followed by; a six-month research and study phase with a host institution with demonstrated expertise in each of the Fellow’s field of research.

To qualify, candidates must be between the ages of 25 and 40, possess at least a first university degree or equivalent, and demonstrate an ability to undertake advanced academic research and studies. They must be from Developing States, be mid-level government officials or mid-level professionals and dealing directly with ocean affairs such as, but not limited to sustainable development of oceans and seas, including the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, national and/or regional ocean policy, establishment of maritime zones and the delimitation of maritime boundaries, coastal zone management, conservation and management of marine living resources, maritime transport and shipping, maritime security, and the protection and preservation of the marine environment, including marine science.
