1. Beasiswa VLIR Belgia baik untuk training, S-2 maupun S-3. http://www.scholarships.vliruos.be

VLIR-UOS provides funds to the organising Flemish universities for these ITPs and ICPs, with the support of the Belgian Directorate-General for Development Cooperation (DGDC). Through the support of individuals and institutions in the South, the Flemish universities aspire to contribute to the availability and quality of education and research in the South. VLIR-UOS and the Flemish universities wish to help change lives by sharing knowledge and minds.

Every year VLIR-UOS offers a number of scholarships, as to enable students from developing countries with a minimum of professional experience who occupy key or strategic positions at an institution or organisation in their native country, to access these programmes. The opportunity for knowledge application and transfer after the scholar returns home is an important scholarship selection criterion.

Although these programmes are primarily oriented towards students and professionals from developing countries, they are also open to other people. This website includes all the information you need to apply for a place on a given programme as a self-supporting student or a scholar. It also includes information on course content and application requirements for ITPs (as they will be organised in 2009) and ICPs (as they will be organised in the academic year 2009-2010 and 2009-2011).

VLIR-UOS sincerely hopes that the exchange during your study in Flanders results in partnerships and improved understanding across frontiers, and that the knowledge you acquire will be invested and disseminated in the framework of long-term initiatives in your country of origin.

2. PRIO Student Scholarships

Deadline: 12:00 (noon), 17 November 2008.

The International Peace Research Institute, Oslo (PRIO) regularly announces student scholarships for master’s degree students who have com pleted their coursework and are in the process of writing their theses.

Scholarships are granted for a period of six to twelve months. For successful applicants, PRIO offers a monthly stipend of NOK 3,500. Students may be in residence at their home university or at PRIO’s offices in Hausmanns gate 7 in Oslo . Students in residence at PRIO will be given access to institute facilities – library services, photocopiers, etc. Each student will be assigned a supervisor from among PRIO’s staff and encouraged to take part in the institute’s scholarly activities. Students will be expected to present their on-going work at internal seminars.

We encourage applications from students whose theses focus on themes within the fields of our research programmes. A short description of each of the research programmes at PRIO and the Centre for the Study of Civil War is included below. More information is available at our website www.prio.no.

The Security Programme (SP) com prises interdisciplinary research projects focusing on the ways in which individuals, groups, states, and international organizations respond to a range of security challenges. While retaining its traditional policy perspectives, the programme aims to develop new fields of research based on both the changing security reality and an evolving universe of theories and methodological approaches to security and insecurity. Important focual points in this field include human security and questions surrounding terrorist threat and appropriate and legitimate responses to it.

Programme Leader: J. Peter Burgess

The Ethics, Norms and Identities (ENI) com prises two broad and interrelated strands of research. First, research within the programme addresses normative dimensions of armed conflict and peacebuilding. Second, the programme addresses how different identities influence, and are influenced by, the dynamics of conflict and peace. Identities examined include those of gender, ethnicity and religion. Questions of identities are central to PRIO’s research on international migration, much of which is located within the ENI programme. Research projects in the programme are characterized by qualitative methodologies and analyses of various forms: textual and discourse analysis, fieldwork, interviews and participatory observation in a variety of conflict settings. This diversity in analytical approach reflects the fact that researchers within the programme com e from a variety of different disciplines, including philosophy, human geography, political science, psychology, international law and international relations.

Programme Leader: Gregory Reichberg

The Conflict Resolution and Peacebuilding (CRPB) programme has key com petence on a number of countries and regions that have been, and continue to be, sites of conflict resolution and peacemaking efforts. These include Afghanistan , Cyprus , Guatemala , Sri Lanka , Sudan , Israel/Palestine and the wider Middle East . Core research areas of the CRPB programme are mobilization and causes of conflict, small arms proliferation, peace initiatives, disarmament and reintegration of fighters, and mine action. The programme is defined in broad terms, with a focus not only on ending wars, but also on efforts to decrease violence. CRPB undertakes research, training and education, policy development and dialogue projects, rooting all engagements in solid research com petence. The aim is to develop synergies that bridge theory, applied knowledge and practice. CRPB researchers are engaged in dialogue with policy-makers and practitioners, as well as in public debate.

Programme Leader: Åshild Kolås

The Centre for the Study of Civil War (CSCW) is a long-term, multidisciplinary initiative that aims to examine why civil wars break out, how they are sustained, and what it takes to end them. Civil war is the dominant form of armed conflict. CSCW aims to clarify the ways in which actors respond to civil war, in all its phases from onset to post conflict, whether as primary participants, general citizenry, or intervening powers. The centre is organized into eight working groups, and its methodological toolkit includes game theory, micro- and macroeconomics, quantitative statistical analysis, com parative case studies and historical source criticism. The work of all the groups, and of the centre as a whole, has an iterative dynamic, going from theory-building to empirical case materials and back.

CSCW Director: Scott Gates
