<br class="">
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 <b class="">Regions2050: Mobile spaces, porous borders, and pathways of regionalization.</b><br class="">
<br class="">
Coordinated by <b class="">Professor Achille Mbembe</b>, 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.<br class="">
<br class="">
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 <u class="">remain in their home institution</u> from where they will conduct their research.</p><p class=""><b class="">The deadline for applications is<u class=""> 4<sup class="">th</sup> September 2020</u>.</b><br class="">
<br class="">
A candidate is only allowed to apply in <b class=""><u class="">one Cluster</u></b><u class="">.</u><br class="">
