Description
The Centre for Research in the Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences (CRASSH) at the University of Cambridge offers funded Visiting Fellowships for scholars from the Global South. The 2027 round, in partnership with the Legacies of Enslavement Initiative, supports interdisciplinary research on the theme "Enslavement: histories, legacies and afterlives." Fellows will collaborate to design and present at a thematic event during their residency, benefit from access to Cambridge’s resources, and may continue engagement digitally after their stay. Projects may draw from any discipline within the arts, humanities, or social sciences and should engage broad audiences with original, interdisciplinary approaches.
