Movement buildingWe are looking for Fellows who are bold and ready to challenge power; who see the bigger picture of how inequalities are playing out; who are imaginative and daring in the way they envision solutions; who bring care and collaboration into their practice; who recognise the significance of lived experience of inequality, whose own lived experience informs their practice; and who focus not on advancing their careers, but on their commitment to changing the world through collective and collaborative approaches.
It is the Fellows themselves who make this fellowship experience so powerful. The knowledge and expertise, lived experience, passion, commitment, and care that they bring to the global fellowship community are what makes it so transformative.
We are working to build a cohort that reflects diverse perspectives and experiences, with a majority of our Fellows coming from the Global South. We look for a range of characteristics in our Fellows, in addition to their alignment to the fellowship offering and our values (fairness, commitment, curiosity, kindness, and courage).
We are especially keen to support applicants who meet at least one of the following criteria:
- Candidates who live in the Global South (although this factor will never be considered in isolation)
- Candidates who come from marginalised and/or historically underrepresented groups such as Black, Latinx/o/a/e, Indigenous, Asian, Arab, Middle Eastern, Pacific Islander, refugee, biracial, multiracial, female-identifying, the disability community, LGBTQIA+ etc.
- Candidates who do not otherwise have the resources to finance their participation in activities such as the AFSEE Fellowship and/or have not already had significant access to fellowships or scholarships.
ELIGIBILITY CRITERIAResidential Fellows- Applicants must qualify for admission to the London School of Economics’ MSc in Inequalities and Social Science. These requirements include a 2:1 degree or equivalent in any discipline. A background in social science and/or work experience in the social policy field are advantageous but not essential. Please refer to the programme page for full details.
- Applicants must meet LSE’s standard English Language Requirement.
- Applicants must have at least 7 years of experience demonstrating courage, care, leadership and commitment in advancing equitable solutions to inequality.
Non-Residential Fellows- Applicants must meet LSE’s standard English Language Requirement.
- Applicants must have at least 7 years of experience demonstrating courage, care, leadership and commitment in advancing equitable solutions to inequality.
Note: For the Non-Residential track, we aim to be inclusive and to encourage applications from non-traditional applicants. We therefore welcome applications from both those applicants who hold an undergraduate degree (2:2 and above) and to those who do not hold an undergraduate degree. This track is also open to applicants who already hold postgraduate degrees. Applicants currently enrolled in a degree programme will not be considered unless their course of study ends before the Fellowship year begins in September.*When clicking on “Apply”, you will be redirected to the original job announcement and details

Gender-based violence (GBV)Background and Need for the Post
There remains a profound gap in the sector’s understanding of the needs and lived realities of women of faith who are navigating violence, harm, and the pursuit of justice. Their experiences are often shaped by intersecting systems of oppression including racism, misogyny, faith illiteracy, and institutional bias which create barriers to life-saving support and can lead to further marginalisation and re-victimisation. The Faith & VAWG Coalition exists to challenge these inequities by centring survivor expertise, generating nuanced and contextually grounded evidence, and influencing policy and practice across VAWG services, statutory agencies, and faith communities. Guided by feminist, anti-racist, and decolonial principles, we work in ways that honour multiple worldviews while remaining critically engaged with the structures that shape power, harm, and belonging. We have secured three years of funding to carry out research, to transform how the sector listens to and responds to survivors from faith backgrounds. We are recruiting for a Research & Policy Lead who will carry out ethical and trauma-informed research; translate findings into meaningful policy interventions; and help shift the conditions in which survivors seek safety and justice. The role calls for humility, reflexivity, and a commitment to challenging bias whilst contributing to systemic change.

3. Coordinate and manage the Advisory Board, integrating expert input into both research design and policy outputs.
4. Engage and support survivors throughout the research phases, including organising debrief workshops and ensuring trauma-informed, inclusive, and culturally respectful practice.
5. Write research reports and publications and create accompanying policy materials for practitioners, MPs, policymakers, and funders.
6. Lead dissemination activities, including launch events, parliamentary roundtables, a conference, webinars, and social-media-friendly outputs.
7. Represent the Coalition externally, strengthening relationships across the VAWG sector, faith communities, academic institutions, and policy audiences.
Person Specifications
Experience delivering mixed-methods research using non extractive practices (surveys, interviews, focus groups)
Experience conducting research in an academic setting and or experience of conducting research with marginalised groups

In 2023, Mercy Corps hired an external consultant to review the BRIGE tools as a gender transformative approach (GTA) and share recommendations on how to strengthen the methodology. In 2025, the tools were updated based on the recommendations.
Mercy Corps is now ready to update and revise the monitoring, evaluation, and learning tools that accompany the refreshed BRIGE curricula.
