The Institute of International Education (IIE) has teamed with the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation to offer dissertation fellowships for population researchers in North America and Sub-Saharan Africa. These parallel programs -- one for American and Canadian Ph.D. students and one for African Ph.D. students -- fund fellowships of $20,000 per year for two years, supporting dissertation research in the social and life sciences on topics related to population dynamics, reproductive health, and economic development. The programs invite proposals from graduate students in economics, economic demography, geography, and epidemiology, but students in other disciplines may apply as well.
The deadline for North American applicants is 1 April, and African applicants have a 30 April deadline. GrantsNet has an overview of the program. The IIE Web site has full details of the North American and African fellowships.
