Child protection/ Children’s rights GBV / VAWG Health Sexual & reproductive rights (SRHR)
The SVRI, with the support of the Kering Foundation, is offering doctoral and postdoctoral fellowships for early-career researchers based in low- and middle-income countries. These fellowships aim to build leadership, strengthen research capacity, and advance knowledge on the often overlooked links between violence against women and violence against children.

About the Fellowship
Too often, research on violence against women and violence against children in low- and middle-income countries is led and funded by institutions in high-income countries. This skews priorities and limits relevance. Locally led research, on the other hand, is more impactful, more sustainable, and better aligned with community needs.

Through this fellowship, SVRI–with the support of the Kering Foundation–is investing in early-career researchers in low and middle-income countries who are committed to building the evidence and action needed to prevent violence and promote the rights and wellbeing of women and children.

Request for Proposals 2026/2027

In 2027, we will award four fellowships—two doctoral and two postdoctoral—to support locally led research that is impactful, sustainable, and grounded in the realities of LMICs. This initiative seeks to deepen the evidence base specifically on VAW and VAC intersections, while supporting researchers to drive meaningful change in their communities.

Applicants must:

Be a national of a low- or middle-income country (LMIC). Check the list.

Be enrolled full-time at an in-person, accredited academic institution in an LMIC.

Be undertaking a PhD dissertation or postdoctoral research focused on the intersection of VAW and VAC.

(For PhD applicants) Have a defended or institutionally approved dissertation proposal.

Preference will be given to candidates who:

Are from underrepresented regions or groups.

Demonstrate a long-term commitment to advancing the rights and wellbeing of women and girls.
