The Activist-in-Residence initiative at FCRJ encourages mutual learning and collaboration between activists, policy makers and academics. The goal is to enhance public oriented work that enhances community engagement around the consequences of racism and racialisation. This year’s AiR programme offers a remote fellowship to two activists for a sixmonth period. We are inviting two separate applications on two distinct initiatives. We welcome applications from the African continent. During this time, the two activists will be expected to develop an action-oriented research project that is aligned with FCRJ’s research priority areas and co-create a showcase event with FCRJ.
Each AiR will be offered a fellowship worth 3,000 £ to:
1.Produce a project which could be a repository/archive of resources on a specific event/issue, developing and curating an exhibition; creating a short film, completing a scoping study, developing policy briefs and primers to support an existing advocacy initiative.
2.The project must demonstrate its value to a community that you are actively engaged in and/or will support an existing community organising initiative.
3.Co-organise with FCRJ a showcase that brings together a public community including those you engaged with at the end of the fellowship. 4.Team applications are welcome for one fellowship.
You will bring an interest in:
1.Feminist and racial justice activism and organising.
2.Action research.
3.Working with communities, educators, policy makers or students.
4.Creating public facing, educational and policy-oriented outputs on issues related to ‘race’ and racism, feminism and indigenous knowledge.
5.Exploring urgent questions in your region from governance, migration, antigender rights, militarisation, youthhood and protests among others.
6.Delivering concrete outputs based on your proposal.
