This two-year (2008-2010) programme offers highly qualified researchers working on issues of globalisation from a feminist perspective, from developing countries in Africa, the Middle East, Asia, Latin America, the Caribbean and the South Pacific, the opportunity to spend a research term in Ottawa based at one of the two universities. The Visiting Scholar in Feminist Perspectives on Globalisation will contribute to gender and development research at both universities and provide a unique opportunity for collaboration between feminist scholars in Canada and the developing world and between North and South. The Pauline Jewett Institute of Women’s and Gender Studies and the Institute of Women’s Studies will alternate in welcoming one visiting scholar per year. However, both Institutes look forward to the opportunity of engaging with the Visiting Scholar. Applications are invited for the 2008-2009 Visiting Scholar in Feminist Perspectives on Globalisation to be based at the Pauline Jewett Institute of Women’s and Gender Studies at Carleton University. (In 2009-2010, the Visiting Scholar will be based at the University of Ottawa Institute of Women’s Studies.) The position is open to scholars from developing countries (both tenured and untenured faculty, as well as post-doctoral or independent scholars) who are pursuing critical feminist research. Applications may be submitted in English or in French, and must include: an abbreviated curriculum vitae (10-12pp); a letter of intent outlining the research to be undertaken in Canada (max 2pp); a list of recent publications; availability during the 2008-2009 academic year; and the names and addresses (postal and e-mail) of two referees.
