UNESCO/Japan Young Researchers' Fellowships Programme (Keizo Obuchi) 2026
UNESCO, with the Government of Japan · France
A research residency in Japan for young researchers from UNESCO member states, funded by the Japanese government. The 2026 cycle is organised around five themes: heritage conservation; AI for natural resource management and climate; ethical and inclusive AI; AI for cities and infrastructure; and AI and education. That thematic shape makes it one of the few routes in this digest that touches education research, which is otherwise almost entirely absent.
