The Isaacsohn and André Families' Visiting Fellowship
The Sussex Weidenfeld Institute of Jewish Studies is delighted to sponsor a new prestigious Visiting Fellowship programme, for scholars in Jewish, Holocaust, and Israel Studies
The Isaacsohn and André families’ Visiting Fellowship was launched in 2023 and in memory of the Isaacsohn and André families who perished in the Holocaust. This Visiting Fellowship programme will run initially for ten years and will see leading academics from universities around the world joining Sussex experts in Jewish, Holocaust studies and Israel Studies as Visiting Fellows, for a period of up to three months. This will deepen Sussex’s research in this field and enrich the programmes offered to students and the University community. Fellows will join the Weidenfeld Institute of Jewish Studies and will have the opportunity to form affiliations with other research centres across the University to promote even greater collaboration on the broad topic of Jewish studies. We encourage applications that will initiation new collaborations, or extend existing collaborations with the Weidenfeld Institute of Jewish studies. In particular we are keen to increase and diversify our sources of funding through internationally collaborative grant applications.
The Isaacsohn and André Families’ Visiting Fellowship offers a stipend to participating faculty of £7000 for the duration of the fellowship, or part of it depending on the length of their stay. Funding under this scheme will cover the Isaacsohn and André fellow’s travel, accommodation, visa costs and subsistence. Successful applicants will be expected to submit a brief report detailing outcomes after the conclusion of the fellowship.
Deadline for 2023 fellowship is June 15, 2023. Applications will also be considered after this deadline for 2024.
