What will you be doing?

This fellowship is intended for researchers from formerly colonised countries – including heritage practitioners, historians, archaeologists, social scientists, artists, journalists, and/or cultural activists – with an interest in (lost) collections or objects from those countries or regions that are kept in the Netherlands. We look forward to welcoming two fellows in the academic year 2025- 2026: both in the first semester (Sept 2025 - Jan 2026). The fellowship is funded by the Dutch Ministry of Education, Culture and Science through the Colonial Collections Consortium.

• Duration: several visits to ZiF over a period of up to three years; these recurring visits may add up to a total of ten months.
• Funding Amount: up to 200,000 EUR to cover the costs for travel and accommodation as well as workshops and conferences; personnel expenses (buy-outs) cannot be covered.

The funding format "Research in Groups" is open to scholars from all disciplines post-PhD, based in Germany and abroad. They can propose a research project to be conducted with a curated group of (preferably) international colleagues. If their collaborative application is successful, ZiF will host the group on its campus, offering ideal working conditions. There are three different group formats with varying time span and funding options.

Researchers and academics in the field of economics are instrumental to our development efforts. We invite you to present your ongoing work and trade thoughts with leading experts at the ADB headquarters in Manila.
