Apply for doctoral awards on misinformation and TFGBV

We’re sponsoring two studentships at Birmingham City University for applicants from the Larger World.

Hey Checklisters,

We’ve got a quick and exciting update for you today!

In partnership with Birmingham City University, Meedan is announcing a call for doctoral research applications. Two studentships are open to candidates from the Larger World, one of which will be focused on electoral misinformation while the other will be used to study technology-facilitated gender-based violence.

To submit an expression of interest, you’ll need to complete a doctoral studentship proposal that responds to the project and shows how you might approach the research problem.

Applications are due Monday, Sept. 30.

Contact us today with any questions you might have about the process.

All best,

Meedan
