Each month, EASST compiles a list of funding, research, and employment opportunities for East African researchers. To view opportunities available in the month of March, please visit the "Other Opportunities" page here.
Of note, the 2017 Working Group in African Political Economy (WGAPE) Annual Meeting will be held at UC Berkeley this year. Calls are now open for papers/research designs as well as participation in special sessions for participants from sub-Saharan Africa (details below).
Call for papers and research designs: http://bit.ly/2llSH9a
Call for participants from institutions in sub-Saharan Africa: http://bit.ly/2kUEBKz
The submission deadline for both will be 11:59pm PT THIS FRIDAY, March 24th, 2017.
Scholars who qualify as applicants from institutions in sub-Saharan Africa (see details below) are encouraged to apply for both tracks by also submitting a paper or research design.
---Call for papers and research designs: http://bit.ly/2llSH9a
We will invite paper and research design submissions that reflect WGAPE’s broad research agenda on the political economy of African development, including ethnic politics, civil conflict and violence, decentralization and democratization, corruption, local governance, public economics, and other related topics. Experimental research with field data will be given priority. Graduate students and junior faculty are particularly encouraged to apply. Each submission that is selected will receive a one-hour discussion slot at the meeting.

This year, we will also invite applications through a separate call for scholars to spend a week in Berkeley. Participants will be registered and invited to attend the Annual Bank Conference on Africa (ABCA), held at UC Berkeley on June 1-2. They will participate in special training sessions, meetings, and individual appointments with local faculty. Participants will then take part in the June 5-6 WGAPE meeting. This opportunity is limited to graduate students, post-docs, and junior faculty working in political economy who have either a) currently hold a faculty or research position at an African institution, b) received or are actively pursuing a graduate degree at an African institution, or c) received an undergraduate degree from an African institution and are currently in graduate school elsewhere.
Please circulate both calls to your networks. Any questions or concerns can be sent to Corinne Cooper at wgapeworkshop@gmail.com.
