This scholarship is for studies in arts and social sciences at University of Birmingham.The Cadbury fellowships programme is run every year by the Department of African Studies and Anthropology at the University of Birmingham, thanks to a generous bequest from the Cadbury family. We invite applications from early-career researchers who are based in
African institutions and wish to spend a period of ten weeks with us
discussing and developing the results of their primary
research. Fellowships will cover return air-fare, accommodation and
living costs for this period.This year’s theme is
Class in Africa: a reassessment. Developing the dialogues arising from the Africa
Talks series
at the University of Birmingham in Autumn 2013, we seek to revisit old
debates about class in Africa, and connect them to new research and
emerging trends
