Marshall Memorial Fellowship
The Marshall Memorial Fellowship (MMF) is GMF’s flagship leadership development program.The Marshall Memorial Fellowship (MMF) program, launched in 1982 by the German Marshall Fund of the United States (GMF) to introduce a new generation of European leaders to the United States, now prepares individuals from both sides of the Atlantic for transatlantic leadership. The year-long program cultivates strong international bonds, exposes participants to diverse perspectives, develops professional and leadership skills, and promotes democratic values and public diplomacy. It provides fellows with opportunities to build their competence in transatlantic relations, leadership, and community-building through virtual and in-person meetings, three weeks of immersive travel, peer learning, and networking. MMF strives to create a lasting network of alumni who engage with and support each other while adapting to contemporary global issues to maintain the program’s relevance and impact.
MMF is made possible through the generous support of the Kresge Foundation, the Cleveland Foundation, Phokion Potamianos, alumni contributions, and GMF.

2025 Marshall Memorial Fellowship Cohort
GMF Leadership Programs is excited to announce the 2025 Marshall Memorial Fellowship cohort.
The fellows have successfully completed a highly competitive application and selection process. The Leadership Programs team is proud of all the outstanding applicants and is thrilled to have assembled such a diverse and impressive group.
The team extends its sincere gratitude to all alumni who shared this opportunity with their networks, nominated candidates, and contributed their time and expertise to the evaluation process.
The team now looks forward to collaborating with the fellows over the next year, starting with the virtual programming and culminating in September with 24 days of immersive travel across the United States and Europe.
The Program
Expand AllWhat is the origin of the Marshall Memorial Fellowship program?
Over its 42 years of existence, the MMF has changed and adapted to new global challenges. It was established in 1982, bringing nine politically involved West Germans to the United States against the backdrop of a postwar society dominated by waning interest in transatlantic cooperation. The program was expanded to young people from the Netherlands, Denmark, and France in 1983, allowing fellows to travel across the United States for six weeks. By 1992, MMF expanded to include fellows from Spain, Portugal, Hungary, and Poland, with more than 450 fellows having traveled in the program’s first decade. Later, fellows from Eastern European countries became eligible to participate, and travel time was shortened to three weeks. In 1999, MMF expanded to include travel for Americans across Europe so that around 50 fellows travelled annually.
Although there were other international traveling fellowships, MMF was distinct for its emphasis on experiential, exploratory learning aimed at high-level figures in policy, politics, and related fields. Understanding cultural differences, MMF’s founders asserted, would provide the the basis for managing policy differences. MMF was conceived as an antidote to tensions among nations—as “the epitome of public diplomacy”.
Why is it called the Marshall Memorial Fellowship?
The MMF program is named in honor of George C. Marshall, a US general and statesman who played a key role in transatlantic relations after World War II through his role in the Europe Recovery Program (1948-1951), more commonly known as the Marshall Plan.
What is the objective of the Marshall Memorial Fellowship?
The program’s main objective is to enable leaders from business, government, and civil society to expand their understanding of transatlantic relations and to create new networks and opportunities for collaboration.
The program does this through active distance learning, leadership development seminars, and an immersive exchange experience. Participants meet with individuals and organizations seeking solutions to challenges in their spheres of activity, hear their strategies and best practices, and understand the complex environment in which they operate.
The MMF program gives participants a unique ability to discover and develop new opportunities for transatlantic collaboration, with a special emphasis on cross-sector collaboration. After the fellowship, we encourage participants to remain immersed and engaged in transatlantic issues.
What does the Marshall Memorial Fellowship program look like?
The Marshall Memorial Fellowship is an immersive fellowship for mid-career professionals committed to the transatlantic relationship. Here is a snapshot of what to expect over the course of the fellowship:
-
a highly diverse cohort of emerging, multi-sectoral leaders with a profound sense of integrity, the desire to create a positive impact, a commitment to democracy and diversity, and a dedication to sharing and applying new knowledge and engaging in the MMF network upon the program’s completion. Our fellows are part of a community of coalition-builders with a strong commitment to the program and transatlantic and global engagement, and they are united by their alignment with GMF’s values.
-
at least six months of required virtual programming including orientation, interactive and self-reflective leadership development workshops, and alumni masterclasses.
-
twenty-four days of immersive, transatlantic travel September 23-October 15, 2026, guided by city coordinators, most of whom are program alumni. All fellows start their fellowships in Washington, DC, before traveling to three cities. The program concludes with a full cohort debrief. Fellows based in North America will travel to three European cities. Europe-based fellows will travel to three North American cities.
-
a mini work sabbatical. To ensure optimum engagement throughout your travels, all fellows are required to complete an Employer Release Form to ensure that travel for the entire cohort remains work-free during mandatory meetings.
-
holistic personal and professional leadership development in the form of:
-
identification and exploration of a personal or professional research question via virtual and in-person programming
-
twenty-four days of high-level meetings, roundtables, seminars, alumni gatherings, and interactive sessions pre-arranged by city coordinators
-
opportunities to plan individual appointments with local stakeholders aligned with your interests
-
engagement with a transatlantic, multi-sectoral network of 21st-century leaders
-

Are there any costs involved?
Through the MMF program, GMF invests $50,000 / €45,455* per fellow. To share program costs, GMF requires a registration fee upon acceptance into the program*. The registration fee for fellows depends on the fellow’s place of employment:
-
for those in the business sector: $8,000 / €7200*
-
for those employed by a US-based nonprofit or the government and living in the United States: $5,000 / €4500*
-
for those employed by a Europe-based nonprofit or government and living in Europe: $3,000 + $220 J1 visa fee / €2700* + €198 J1 visa fee
It is expected that participants accepted into the program coming from a business background can offset the cost as professional development and/or have their employers contribute to the cost.
Throughout the travel component of the program, GMF estimates personal out-of-pocket expenses to be $1500-3,000 / €1360-2730* on average.
GMF does not provide health insurance during travel. Fellows are advised to check with their healthcare providers to ensure coverage during the immersive part of the fellowship program. European fellows will need health insurance for travel as a requirement of the J-1 visa application process.
Financial assistance is available to those individuals who demonstrate a clear financial need and inability to cost-share in this way. A payment plan option is available for those individuals who require it.
*Euro amounts will fluctuate depending on the current exchange rate.
Our Fellows
Expand AllWhat our Fellows bring
The MMF program is designed for mid-career professionals who come with a wealth of experience and a strong transatlantic focus to their personal or professional lives. Our fellows bring a profound sense of integrity, the desire to create a positive impact, a commitment to democracy and diversity, and a dedication to sharing and applying new knowledge and engaging in the MMF network after completing the program. They are community- and coalition-builders with a strong commitment to the program and to transatlantic and global engagement. They are united by their alignment with GMF’s values.
Our fellows typically range in age from 30 to 42. We have found that individuals in this stage of their lives often possess the foundational knowledge and skills ideally suited for the growth and exploration that this transformative experience offers. Nevertheless, we encourage applications from all individuals who find that they are at a relevant stage in their professional and personal growth and are well suited for such a program.
Our fellows typically come from backgrounds including finance, corporations, government, government affairs, media, multilateral organizations, NGOs, foundations, think tanks, and academia. We seek fellows interested in our focus areas, including technology and innovation, transatlantic relations, Ukraine, global implications of China’s rise, security and geopolitics, allied competitiveness, cities and regions, civil society, democracy, and disinformation and elections. However, we believe the transatlantic relationship celebrates experts from a wide range of fields. As such, we invite applications from individuals who work outside these sectors and focus areas if they find they align with our eligibility requirements.
What our Fellows leave with
Enhanced Understanding of the Transatlantic Partnership
Participants leave with a significantly enhanced understanding of transatlantic issues and a more nuanced understanding of the diverse cultures in North America and Europe. Virtual sessions delve into the EU and US governmental systems. Thematic discussions are held on current trends and policy priorities within the transatlantic relationship. This knowledge is enriched by the immersive in-person component of the MMF program, which provides nontraditional approaches tailored to local context to address transatlantic themes and current events. This foundational understanding fosters professional growth beyond the program’s formal components, equipping our fellows with the knowledge and skills needed to navigate and influence transatlantic policy landscapes.
A Strengthened Network and Lasting Connections
This experience provides our fellowship recipients with a strengthened, multi-sectoral network that spans the Atlantic. Through virtual and in-person interactions, fellows have the opportunity to connect with a variety of high-level and multi-sectoral stakeholders. They build lasting professional and personal connections through networking activities such as home visits and alumni receptions. On-the-ground individual appointments offer the fellows self-paced and sector-specific networking development opportunities. These connections support our alumni as they continue to engage with and contribute to transatlantic dialogue, leveraging the relationships gained during the program.
An Action-Oriented Professional Development Experience
Aside from thematic discussions, the MMF program offers leadership development for mid-career professionals with an immersive, structured learning experience that deepens their understanding of specific themes, cultures, and professional practices. Through the MMF Research Plan, fellows will elaborate a research question unique to their professional or personal interests that will function as a framework and help guide their in-person leadership development experience. This goal is achieved by guiding participants through a comprehensive process of preparation, active engagement, and reflective analysis. The plan aims to foster personal and professional growth, equipping participants with new insights, skills, and perspectives that they can apply in their post-travel professional contexts. Fellows will have the opportunity to publish their findings and reflections on the GMF website via the MMF blog, which provides them with a platform for sharing their work with a broader audience. This opportunity enhances their career trajectory and deepens their commitment and ability to contribute to transatlantic cooperation.
Our Cohorts
Expand AllOur Cohorts
The program seeks a diverse cohort, with a particular emphasis on country, regional, and state representation across Europe and North America. To foster an enriching and dynamic learning experience with a broad range of perspectives, the program aims for one or two fellows per region in Europe—Northern Europe, Western Europe, Central and Eastern Europe, Southeastern Europe, and Southwestern Europe—and broad North American state representation. Ideal candidates will be engaged in transatlantic relations and their associated challenges but will not have extensive experience in countries across the Atlantic from their own.
We particularly encourage applications from historically underrepresented groups in the program, including those from Nordic and Baltic nations, the Western Balkans, Southern Europe, Canada, Mexico, the Midwest, the West (outside of California) and the Southwest. We also especially encourage applications from those with marginalized identities, including but not limited to, Black, Latino/a, Indigenous, Asian, Arab, and Pacific Islander racialized individuals, particularly those based in Europe, and the LGBTQ+ community. We are also interested in increasing the number of conservative voices represented within the cohort to reflect the spirit of promoting cooperation and understanding across the political spectrum.
