The fully-funded fellowship in the USA is for the practitioners as well as for the scholars. However, the practitioners will learn the methods to improve the strategies and techniques for building democracy worldwide and the scholars will learn the techniques to conduct original and exclusive research for their publications. In order to gain all the productive experiences, the National Endowment for Democracy Fellowship ensures the engagement of the fellows with other counterparts, the availability of the resources to conduct research and writing, and opportunities to develop professional relationships with a global network of democracy advocates.
The Reagan-Fascell program warmly welcomes practitioners from developing or aspiring democracies and also those who are from non-democratic countries and other established democracies. The NED fellowship program is based on many educational and recreational events which help the fellows to gain knowledge about the work of Enfownment and its other related institutions. The events can be seminars, roundtable conferences, field trips, sports, museum trips, movies and happy hours, etc.
The Reagan-Fascell NED fellowship deals with specific democracy-related projects. The NED fellows are expected to work on projects that are on the basis of NED-proposed projects.

The project may also be based on a wide range of methodologies and approaches.
