The Global South Fellowship Program aims to support the professional development of early-career researchers from universities in the Global South.
The aim of the scheme is to enable visiting fellows to gain insight into the organisation and conduct of research, training, and administration at the University of Birmingham and the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. Additionally, it promotes research collaboration, partnership development, and further collaboration with the Global South. We welcome applications in subject areas related to education access and equity, global health, and sustainability and climate action. However, there is some flexibility around this.
