Conference to be held in Nairobi

STRI Week

Campus France Kenya is pleased to invite you to an evening dedicated to research, innovation, and career opportunities as part of France Alumni Day 2026.

IFRA-Nairobi invites applications for fieldwork grants aimed to support Masters, PhD and postdoc students who conduct research in the social sciences and humanities in East Africa (Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Burundi, Rwanda, and Eastern Congo). The fieldwork is scheduled to take place in 2026. IFRA prioritizes support to the following research themes:

Elections, Governance in East Africa
Land Question and Agrarian Transformation
Youth and Politics, Gen Z
Food Studies

The “Food Circulations in Africa” program aims to document the social life of food objects in Africa by developing a methodology for analysing food circulations. The expected outcomes are a series of contextualized social and spatial biographies of food objects.

IFRA-Nairobi will award postdoctoral fellowships lasting between three and six months to conduct research on the social and spatial biographies of food objects in East Africa. The fellowship includes a fieldwork grant of 800 euros per month.

We have an upcoming conference in Dakar bringing together researchers working on respiratory viruses, including Influenza, RSV, SARS-CoV-2, and other respiratory pathogens.
