> Thanks to generous funding from Carnegie Foundation (USA) and the Gerda Henkel Foundation (Germany), WISER is launching a major interdisciplinary and multi-regional research program called Regions2050: Mobile spaces, porous borders, and pathways of regionalization.
> 
> Coordinated by Professor Achille Mbembe, the Program includes 34 researchers and straddles the traditional divide between Francophone, Anglophone, Arabophone and Lusophone scholarly communities. It also transcends the divide between Sub-Saharan Africa and North Africa while reconnecting the African continent to the Southern Atlantic and Indian Oceanic worlds.
> 
> The program is opened to scholars from various disciplines in the humanities, social sciences, environmental and health  sciences, economic geography and technology studies in their early-mid career. Successful candidates will be paid an honorarium. They will belong to a team, but are expected to remain in their home institution from where they will conduct their research.
> 
> The deadline for applications is 4th September 2020.
> 
> A candidate is only allowed to apply in one Cluster.
