But with a rapidly expanding range of international issues on the cyber diplomacy agenda, it is important to ensure that all stakeholders have access to the relevant knowledge and background of these processes as well as skills to meaningfully engage in those conversations. To support that goal, the EU Cyber Diplomacy Initiative \u2013 EU Cyber Direct launches the EU:CD Fellowship for Junior and Mid-Level Experts from partner countries that will run from September 2022 to October 2024.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"item-me-cglv4ks-objectives-of-the-eu-cd-fellowship\" class=\"block header-block\">Objectives of the EU:CD Fellowship<\/h2>\n<p class=\"block paragraph-block\">The main purpose of the EU:CD Fellowship is to support partner countries and non-governmental stakeholders to engage in international cyber diplomacy debates through addressing development of skills and knowledge at the individual level.
