We are pleased to announce the 2020 TARII Fellows!
Due to limitations in our 2020 programming as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, TARII has shifted funds in order to provide for more research fellowships this year. TARII, with the feedback and support of a scholarly review committee, has selected seven Iraqi fellows and five American fellows. Our four American fellows and their research are listed below. For security reasons, similar information on the seven Iraqi fellows will be provided if and when they provide their consent.
