Global South Fellowship Program

A fellowship program for early-career researchers from Global South universities to develop professionally at the University of Birmingham and University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. The program supports research collaboration and partnership development, focusing on education access and equity, global health, and sustainability and climate action. Fellows gain insight into research, training, and administration at leading universities while building international partnerships.

• Applicants must have completed a doctorate to be eligible. There is no fixed definition of an early-career researcher; the term is relative and varies by discipline and year. Must be from universities in the Global South. Applications welcome in subject areas related to education access and equity, global health, and sustainability and climate action, though there is some flexibility around this. Must identify a suitable host at the university.
