AfOx Visiting Fellowship Programme

The AfOx Visiting Fellowship Programme is a fully funded year-long fellowship hosted by the University of Oxford. It supports African researchers holding an advanced degree to pursue independent academic research and build international networks, with a mix of virtual collaboration and an in-person visit to Oxford. Fellows are affiliated with an Oxford department and gain access to university resources and opportunities for collaboration and joint publications.

Affiliation with an Oxford department and college; access to libraries, archives, and labs; networking with Oxford and global researchers; opportunities for joint publications and new projects; support for capacity strengthening and long-term collaborations.

Applicants must be African researchers (with an Oxford-based collaborator) and have an advanced degree; the project should align with AfOx partner priorities.

Identify an Oxford-based collaborator, align your project with an AfOx partner programme, prepare documents, and submit the online application before the deadline.
