Northwestern University Qatar Global Fellows, 2024-25, Qatar. Deadline: 15 March 2024.
This call for applications is intended for researchers wishing to spend all or part of their institutional leave/sabbatical at the Institute for Advanced Study in the Global South at Northwestern University in Qatar (#IAS_NUQ) pursuing a research project of relevance to the histories, cultures, societies, and media of the Global South.
In addition to pursuing their own research projects, #IAS_NUQ Global Fellows are fully engaged in the intellectual life of the Institute. Fellows participate in research groups, receive feedback on their work-in-progress, and take part in #IAS_NUQ events. They are expected to present publicly on their research/creative scholarship and are encouraged to produce one multilingual working paper or creative output with #IAS_NUQ Press during their affiliation with the Institute.
Current research themes are 1) Genealogies and Epistemologies of the Global South; 2) Arab Media, Culture, and Politics; 3) Southern Digitalities; and 4) Critical Security Studies.
The duration of this Global Fellowship is either one month or one academic term. This is a residential fellowship; Global Fellows are therefore expected to work on campus at least four days a week during the period of their fellowship.
