Visiting Fellowships for Scholars from the Global South; DL: 26 Feb, 2024

The Centre for Research in the Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences (CRASSH) at the University of Cambridge is inviting applications for funded Visiting Fellowships for scholars from the Global South. The purpose of these Fellowships is to provide opportunities for scholars working at higher education institutions in the Global South to exchange ideas with other researchers based at CRASSH and elsewhere in the University of Cambridge and to draw benefit from access to the University’s collections and resources. It is hoped that these visits will lead on to future collaborations and exchanges.

Themed call for applications: Religious Boundaries

For 2025, CRASSH will partner with the Faculty of Divinity and the Cambridge Interfaith Programme Applications are invited from scholars whose research is connected to the theme of inter-religious relations, with a particular focus on religious boundary-making. This invites projects that study how two or more religious groups form one another in their mutual encounter, when and how they demarcate difference, and how boundaries between them remain mutable through various activities of exchange such as dialogue or missionary endeavours. The call also welcomes projects that are interested in how religious boundary-constructions relate to other articulations of identity, such as ethnicity, class, politics, or gender.

Up to three Visiting Fellows will be selected each year from different countries in the Global South whose research proposals respond to the call set out above. The current call will appoint Visiting Fellows for the Lent Term 2025 (from mid-January to mid-March).

The deadline for applications is 12:00 (midday) UCT on 26 February 2024. The results of the selection process will be communicated to all applicants before the end of March 2024. Please email fellowships@crassh.cam.ac.uk for enquiries. For more information, visit: https://www.crassh.cam.ac.uk/research/fellowships/global-south-fellowships/
