The Africa-China Initiative (ACI) at the Walsh School of Foreign Service (SFS) at Georgetown University is pleased to partner with
The Center for African Studies (CAS) at Howard University to offer an 18-month (3 semester) Africa-China Post-Doctoral Fellowship. The purpose of the ACI Fellowship is to expand African scholarship, expertise, and perspectives on the study of Africa-China relations (and more broadly, Africa-Asia and Global South) by supporting research by an early-career scholar, and to elevate the teaching at Georgetown University and Howard University and across the Washington, DC area. The ACI Post-Doctoral Fellowship is open to non-tenured and tenured holders of PhDs. We are particularly interested in early- and mid-career scholars with a broad range of international experience, and a strong Africa-China research record. The ACI Post-Doctoral Fellow must be in residence in the Washington, DC area for at least 18 months, and will spend approximately half their time at Georgetown and half at Howard. These terms must be consecutive. The ACI Post-Doctoral Fellowship is funded through the ACI – Henry Luce Foundation grant and will be administered by Georgetown University. It will begin Spring Semester 2027 (January 2027) and end at the end of Spring Semester 2028 (June 2028).
