The RACE.ED Stuart Hall Foundation Fellowship is hosted by the Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities (IASH) at the University of Edinburgh. It supports postdoctoral scholars whose research meaningfully engages with Stuart Hall’s work through theory, method or topic. Projects need not focus exclusively on Hall, and innovative, interdisciplinary topics and approaches are encouraged.
The fellowship connects researchers with RACE.ED, the University’s multidisciplinary network concerned with race, racialization and decolonial studies, and the Stuart Hall Foundation, whose public education mission addresses race, class and intersecting inequalities. Fellows receive time and space for thinking, reading and writing within an international scholarly community, alongside mentoring, seminars and opportunities to develop their research profiles through the Foundation’s resources and networks.
