March 15 is the deadline for the ACLS Leading Edge Fellowships for recent PhDs with an interest in social justice. Fellowships and residencies are two ways for new PhDs to start building their CVs and careers and this opportunity is no exception. The 2-year Leading Edge Fellowships begin in September 2023 in partnership with social justice organizations across the US. The program is supported by the Mellon Foundation and operated by the ACLS to?demonstrate how knowledge of the humanities can advance justice and equity.
The 3-phase selection process asks applicants to show their ability to connect academic and non-academic skills and capacities to the project they have selected, as well as to show a willingness to partner with and learn from others, among other attributes.
Successful applicants will join the staff of their project host organizations for two years and earn a stipend of up to $65,000 per year plus health insurance. Also funded are the professional development activities to be undertaken with other fellows over the course of the term.
