Urban Studies Foundation International Fellowship

A fellowship for early-career urban scholars from developing countries to advance their research and writing at host universities worldwide. You'll receive funding for accommodation, travel, and research costs while working with a mentor to develop academic publications from your completed research. The program aims to strengthen Global South scholarship, build international research networks, and develop future research leadership in urban studies.

• Applicants must be early-to-mid-career urban scholars holding a PhD awarded within the preceding ten calendar years (by the submission deadline). They must be nationals of any country present on the current OECD DAC list of ODA recipients, and be formally affiliated to/working within a research organisation based in any of these countries (note: individuals based in high-income territories are not eligible to apply, even where these are associated with an ODA-listed country). Candidates must have already completed primary data collection and analysis, and be ready to write-up their findings as academic publications (this award is not intended to support proposals involving new primary data collection or analysis). The work must represent a clear and valuable contribution to the field of urban studies, and proposals outside of this field will not be considered.
