Applications for the UNU-WIDER Visiting Scholars Programme in Finland in 2022.
The Visiting Scholars Programme gives qualified scholars an opportunity to research topics related to development and/or global economic issues, and to participate in UNU-WIDER activities.
Worth of Award
- UNU-WIDER provides medical insurance (for medical and hospital services resulting from sickness and accident during your stay at UNU-WIDER). It also provides a monthly stipend of EUR 3,000 as a contribution towards travel, visa, accommodation and other out-of-pocket expenses.
- Visiting scholars may apply for a supplementary grant to cover high travel costs (including visa) if they exceed EUR 1,200 (lowest economy class fare).
- The programme does not cover expenses related to dependents.
Eligibility
- Applicants should have a PhD degree in economics or a development-related discipline.
- A good publication record is an added advantage. Applications from suitably qualified early-career, female, and developing country researchers are particularly encouraged.
- Applicants whose research overlaps with the current research programme are preferred, but it remains open to proposals on all aspects of development.
