African Centre for Cities (ACC) has announced a call for applications for the African Urban Futures Postdoctoral Research Fellowships at the Utrecht University.
The project rests on the assumption that sustainable urban development requires a break with the present logic of development that predominates in most African countries.

Eligibility
- Applicants are expected to have completed a doctoral degree in an area of study relevant to urban studies within the past five years
- Applicants may not previously have held permanent full-time professional or academic posts
- As the lab has a pan-African focus, applicants should have extensive knowledge of cities across at least two different sub-regions of Africa as defined by the United Nations (Southern Africa, East Africa, Middle Africa, West Africa, and Northern Africa) and a track record of relevant research and publication
- Fluency in English is a requirement and fluency in French will be an advantage
- The successful candidate will be required to comply with the university’s approved policies, procedures, and practices for the postdoctoral sector
