Overview
The Drugs, Security, and Democracy Fellowship Program supports research on organized crime, drug policy, issues of governance and associated topics across the social sciences and related disciplines. The fellowship seeks to develop a concentration of researchers who are interested in policy-relevant outcomes and membership in a global interdisciplinary network.
Deadline
January 20, 2012
Eligibility
The Drugs, Security, and Democracy Fellowship Program features two competitions:
- Dissertation Fellowship: This competition is open to PhD candidates worldwide who have an approved dissertation prospectus by July 1, 2012, but have not completed writing for final submission.
- Research Fellowship applications are accepted from:
- PhD recipients worldwide who have completed their PhD within 7 years of the application deadline.
- Researchers in Latin America or the Caribbean without a PhD but with a master’s or the terminal degree in their field or equivalent professional experience. Applications from researchers in professions outside of academia are welcome.
Fellowship Terms
The program provides support for a minimum of three (3) and a maximum of 12 months of research. Candidates must spend at least three months conducting research in Latin America or the Caribbean. Fellowship amounts vary depending on the research plan; however, support will be provided for travel and living expenses as well as associated research costs based on a budget reviewed by SSRC. The fellowship is intended to support an individual researcher, regardless of whether that individual is working alone or in collaboration with others.
The fellowship includes mandatory participation in two interdisciplinary workshops, one preceding fellowship research and one upon completion of the fellowship tenure. Workshops will be organized by the Universidad de los Andes and held in Latin America in August. Travel and accommodations will be provided.
