Applications are invited from scholars preferably with research projects related to the following current research themes at the Institute:

  • Cultural Images in and of Africa
  • Global Trade and Regional Integration: African Economies, Producers and Living Conditions
  • Post-Conflict Transition, the State and Civil Society in Africa

    Applicants are requested to identify which research theme they want to be attached to.

    The Guest Researcher’s scholarship includes a return air-fare (Economy Class), accommodation, a subsistence allowance of SEK (Swedish kronor) 250 (approx.
