Call for applications are invited by The Collaborative Tri-continental Program which is open to candidates of all disciplines of the Social and Human Sciences, as well as to researchers of other sciences. Main theme of this year’s programme is “Global Environmental Change, Agrarian Transformation and Food Sovereignty in the South”.
This program was initiated in the year 2005 by the Latin American Council of Social Sciences (CLACSO), the Council for the Development of Social Science, Research in Africa (CODESRIA) and the Asian Political and International Studies Association (APISA). The main aim of this programme is to carry out high quality social science research and enhance the production of knowledge ideal for promotion of southern perspectives on critical issues and feeding these into global debates.
The Program includes an annual South-South summer institute, research conferences and grants for advanced research. The research grants are intended to promote association among researchers from the South and to stimulate analytical empirical studies on topics of relevance for their regions and for the Global South.
As the Collaborative Tri-continental Program involves the participation of scholars from Africa, Asia and Latin America, it has been decided that applicants who are residents in Africa should submit their applications to CODESRIA. Exceptionally, that resident in Asia should submit their applications to CODESRIA and those in Latin America to CLACSO
The deadline for the receipt of applications is April, 30th, 2012.
