Center for Human Rights and Humanitarian Studies Visiting Scholar Program – Spring 2027

The Center for Human Rights and Humanitarian Studies Visiting Scholar Program at Brown University invites academics on sabbatical and human rights practitioners to pursue their own research for a short-term affiliation. Visiting scholars participate in the CHRHS community and may give a public presentation or workshop related to their work. The program does not provide salary or benefits; participants typically have funding from their home institution or external grants to cover expenses.

Participation in CHRHS scholarly activities and community; potential to give a public presentation or workshop focused on the work

Open to academics on sabbatical as well as human rights practitioners who would benefit from a short-term affiliation with CHRHS.

Submit a cover letter, research proposal, curriculum vitae, two references, and a letter of endorsement from a Brown faculty member who would sponsor and supervise the visit
