Women’s Postdoctoral Research Fellowships at World Agroforestry Centre _ Deadline: 31-Jul-2011

The World Agroforestry Centre is committed in developing a diverse and strong pool of research scientists, both for strengthening its own institute and for the increasing needs of the developing world. The first round of the Women’s Postdoctoral Research Fellowship Programme which attracted five female scientists in various fields of research study came to a close in the 1st quarter of this year (2011). In an effort to further the balance of Gender Diversity among the scientists, the World Agroforestry Centre is announcing the second round of the Women’s Postdoctoral Research Fellowship Programme.

Scope of the Programme

Women postgraduates are expected to hold a Doctoral degree in a field related to agriculture, agroforestry, biodiversity, biometrics, capacity building, climate change, ecology, economics, environmental policy, forestry, genetic resources, geography, hydrology, impact assessment, institutional strengthening, land degradation, marketing, natural products, natural resource management, or sociology.

Women Fellows under the programme may propose various arrangements to be engaged with the World Agroforestry Centre including secondment from their current institutes, job-sharing, regular employment contract at our headquarters or regular contract at one of our six regional centres. The minimum term for employment is two years. We also want to contribute to development of national research institutes and so, willingly support “leave without pay” arrangements, as well as topics of mutual interest between ICRAF and the NARIs.

Women Fellows will be assigned a senior scientific supervisor, and be a member of one or more Global Research Priority or Regional Teams at ICRAF. Women Fellows will be expected to undertake an approved research study which will include publishing of their results and presentation at international fora. The request from the programme for each Fellow should cover salary, benefits, women’s leadership courses, computing needs, office needs, travel and research expenses.

Whilst candidates will not be excluded on the basis of age or nationality, a preference will be given to applicants below the age of forty five years and those from developing and/or investor countries.

Successful applicants will be expected to have completed all formal requirements for a PhD degree at the time of employment as postdoctoral fellow. Expected data of final PhD exam needs to be included in the CV for those not yet in possession of such degree.

Process for application

Interested applicants are encouraged to apply through one of our six Regional Coordinators (RCs) or six Global Research Project Leaders (GRPLs) identified in the application form. However, applications can also be made directly to our Human Resources Unit, (icrafhru@cgiar.org) quoting “2nd Round Women’s Postdoctoral Research Fellowship Programme” on the subject line. The full contacts of our GRPLs and RCs, as well as general areas of interest and locational opportunities are provided in detail at:


Applications will be considered until 31st July 2011.
