Application Deadline: 12 January, 2023
The Atlantic Fellows for Social and Economic Equity (AFSEE) programme is inviting applications for eighteen (18) Fellows for 2023-24, the seventh fellowship year. It is an innovative fully-funded fellowship based at the International Inequalities Institute at the London School of Economics and Political Science in London (LSE) in the United Kingdom. The programme is aimed at mid-career social change leaders, from diverse countries and contexts, who are working to challenge inequality and who believe inequality can be defeated.
The Residential track of the Atlantic Fellows for Social and Economic Equity programme includes full tuition fees for the MSc in Inequalities and Social Science at LSE, a £19,000 stipend to cover living costs while in London, any necessary travel expenses to in-person modules, and travel to and from London at the beginning and end of the active fellowship, including reimbursement of visa fees.
Fellows on both tracks benefit from dedicated mentoring, and leadership and skills development. Modest financial support is also available for Fellows who have family care responsibilities.
Eligibility
The programme is open to applicants:
- Who live in the global South (in particular Africa, Asia, Middle East, Latin America and Caribbean), although this factor will never be considered in isolation.
- Who do not otherwise have the resources to finance their participation in activities such as these, especially people from the global South.
- Who have not already had significant access to fellowships or scholarships.
