Post-doc fellowship: Learning and Evaluation Specialist
/Attention PhD graduates! People Powered is hosting a fully funded two-year fellowship for a learning and evaluation specialist. We are honored to have been selected as a host organization by the American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS) for its Leading Edge Fellowship program for a second time.
In 2024, ACLS will offer 21 two-year fellowships, in which recent humanities and interpretive social sciences PhDs will be matched with organizations advancing social justice and equity. Applicants must be authorized to work in the US for the entire duration of the fellowship term. ACLS is now accepting fellowship applications, with applications due by 9 p.m. ET on Monday, March 13, 2024 (2 a.m. UTC on Tuesday, March 14, 2024). All applicants should direct questions to and apply through ACLS.
Each Leading Edge fellow will receive a $70,000 USD stipend in the first year and $72,000 in the second year, as well as health insurance and professional development funding. The fellows also will participate in a variety of professional development and networking activities designed to help translate the experiences of their 24-month placements into post-fellowship career opportunities.
