The Revitalizing Rainfed Agriculture Network (RRA) is pleased to announce a fellowship program to conduct field research in India during the summer of 2015.
Our research program seeks
to understand the diversity of livelihood systems in rainfed areas and
the role of public investments in enabling adaptive responses that lead
to improvements
in well-being and human development.
We invite post-baccalaureate students
anywhere in the world to apply for the fellowship and contribute towards
this exciting research agenda.
We seek innovative proposals which seek to undertake research on one or more themes:
The fellowship will start on June 1, 2015 and culminate on August 14, 2015. The fellowship will cover basic living expenses for the duration of the program as well as travel to and from field sites within India. Fellows will also be provided logistical support in the field sites for housing and local travel through our partners.
Each fellow will produce a paper based
on the research conducted during the fellowship to be published as part
of our working papers series. We also hope to curate edited volumes or
special journal issues based on
this body of work.
The applications are now open for the RRA Summer Fellowship program. The deadline is March 9, 2015. We will notify the results on or before March 30, 2015.
