	Past Global Changes (PAGES) has announced the Inter-Africa Mobility Research Fellowship Program (African Mobility Fellowship) for African early-career scientists studying past global changes. The program aims to give limited support for travel and subsistence to early-career researchers from African countries (PhD students and postdocs at African institutions), who are interested in gaining experience in another African country. The final goal is to contribute to the development of collaborative research and the promotion of paleoscience network within Africa. The program is intended to support costs associated with international travel and living expenses while abroad, i.e. flight (economy class), visa, costs of laboratory consumables (up to max. 10% of the total budget) and accommodation (subsistence and housing) costs for the period of the exchange, for the fellow only. Insurance will not be covered by the grant. PAGES cannot be deemed responsible if the candidate cannot travel for any reason (such as flight cancellation). Logistics The fellowships will be awarded for a short duration, between two and four weeks. The fellowship must be used within 12 months (awardees will have up to 12 months to take up their fellowship once awarded). Eligibility Criteria They invite applications from outstanding early-career scientists from African countries. The applicants must fulfill the following conditions: Be an early-career researcher either in the final stage of completing their PhD thesis/dissertation, or a postdoctoral researcher within five years of completing their PhD (including PhD holders who have not held a postdoc position). Be either a student or hold a paid position in their home country at the time of the application, and during the fellowship period. Be a citizen of any African country and currently working or doing their PhD at an African institution. Already be working on a research topic within the scientific scope of PAGES. Be willing to conduct research in another African institution/country. Must secure the agreement of the host researcher/institution, and provide a confirmation letter from the host researcher/institution as a pre-condition for award of the fellowship. Demonstrate that fellowship will not last for less than two weeks or for more than four weeks within a 12-month period from the date of award. For more information, visit PAGES.
