Context and Objective

The human development approach puts people at the centre of development. It recognizes economic drivers for change but goes beyond them to raise issues of enlarging human capabilities and expanding people’s choices. The objective of the Academic Fellowship is to encourage young Ph.D. students from the Asia Pacifific region to analyse critical development issues from a human development perspective, contributing to development theory, applications and policies. Thus, the Fellows are expected to push the frontiers of research on human development while analyzing, through the human development lens, issues directly or indirectly related to human development. The research must focus on a well-defifined aspect of human development under the theme selected



Please see our brochure on “Human Development Fellows” for information on 2005-2008 recipients of Fellowships:

Theme – Climate Change and Human Development

Human development is about expanding human potential and enlarging human freedom. Climate change is a human development challenge, as it threatens to erode human freedoms and limit choice and plunge large numbers into poverty and hardship.



Climate change is hampering efforts to deliver the MDG promise as it undermines international efforts to combat poverty and exacerbates already existing inequalities. Those, in turn, can result in an increase in conflict over sharing natural resources. Climate change is in fact an increasingly powerful driver of wider inequalities between and within countries, also between women and men.



Climate change can result in increased frequency of extreme weather events, flooding, storms, drought, increases in sea temperatures, and melting of glaciers, etc., which effect negatively agriculture and health/nutrition. This has negative implications on the livelihood of poor and vulnerable communities who depend largely on agriculture and natural resource management. In particular, women are affected in their roles of food producers and providers, guardians of health, and care givers. Reduced employment opportunities, for example for women working in agricultural fifields, constitute a net loss in income which leads to a loss in savings, making it even harder for households to cope with disasters.



The magnitude of this long term challenge can be assessed considering that an additional 1.8 billion people are expected to face water stress by 2080, with large areas of Central Asia, northern parts of South Asia and northern China facing a grave ecological crisis as a result of glacial retreat and changed rainfall patterns. Up to 330 million people in coastal and low-lying areas are expected to be displaced through flflooding and tropical storm activity. In the Asia Pacific region, in particular, over 70 million people in Bangladesh and 22 million people in Viet Nam could be affected by global warming-related flflooding.



What are the mechanisms through which the ecological impacts of climate change affect the poor? Are there examples of good practices to ensure climate and human security?



Have climate change and other environmental concerns been integrated in development planning in the context of environment protection and sustainable development? What has been the effectiveness of policies introduced? What is a possible agenda to promote human development and climate security? These are some of the questions that could be addressed.



The Fellowship

The UNDP Human Development Academic Fellowship for Asia Pacific carries an award of US$ 10,000. The students will be required to submit to UNDP a copy of their fifinal approved dissertation. In addition, Fellows may be expected to present their work in workshops/seminars and other events arranged by UNDP (travelrelated costs will be covered separately).

The Centre for the History of Science, Technology and Medicine at Imperial
College London invites applications for the Hans Rausing PhD studentship,
starting in the 2009/10 academic year.

The history of science and technology has been taught and researched at
Imperial College London since 1963, and CHoSTM in its current form was
established in 1992. In the recent Research Assessment Exercise, CHoSTM
was awarded the highest rating of all 83 UK history departments. 40% of its
research was classed as world-leading in terms of originality, significance and
rigor, with another 40% judged internationally excellent.

The Hans Rausing award is open to home, EU and overseas students who hold
or are about to complete an MSc in the history of science, technology and
medicine or related field. Applicants should posses an outstanding academic
track record and strong research potential.

The proposed topic should relate to the history of science and / or
technology. Proposals in the history of medicine are not eligible for
consideration.

The award covers fees (at home or overseas rates) and a stipend equivalent
to that offered by the AHRC. Continuation of the award is subject to the
holder making satisfactory progress each year on the doctoral programme

For more information about CHoSTM and staff research interests, visit our
website at http://www3.imperial.ac.uk/historyofscience

Initial enquiries should be directed to Dr Abigail Woods,

Topology of Technology
- announcing 10 doctoral fellowships -
The interdisciplinary post-graduate program "Topology of Technology" at the
Darmstadt University of Technology, Germany, announces 10 doctoral
fellowships, starting Nov. 1, 2009, and running for 2 years (with an
possible option of a third year).
The program is organized by teachers from the subjects of history,
sociology, philosophy, literature and language, mechanical engineering,
informatics, and civil/construction engineering. It focuses on the
relationship between technology and space---at present, in history, and in a possible future. It has five thematic foci:
- Information Technology and the Topology of the Network Society
- Technological Spaces of the Body and the Perception of Space
- The Circulation of Materials -- Mobility -- Tourism
- Topologies of Technology and Forms of Representation
- Fields of Power and the Role of Technology
The program is primarily financed by the German Research Council (DFG); see
www.dfg.de.
Monthly stipends range between 1,000 and 1,365 euros.
All applicants need to have a Master degree or the equivalent thereof. Since course work and seminars are carried out in both German and English, it is expected that applicants are willing to learn to read and understand spoken German. Fellows are expected to work together in our beautifully situated villa downtown Darmstadt and thus need to take up their residence in the city or the vicinity.
Applications are only accepted in electronic form. They should include (1) a CV, (2) copies of academic diplomas, (3) a short description (max. 5 pages) of the planned doctoral dissertation, and (4) the names and addresses of two university professors who are willing to act as reference persons. Please send your application no later than
9 August 2009
to topologie@ifs.tu-darmstadt.de. Please make sure that it includes a
personally formulated explanation why you are particularly interested in the topic of the program and to which thematic focus your research will, in the first instance, contribute. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact one of the directors: Petra Gehring (gehring@phil.tu-darmstadt.de)
or Mikael Hård (hard@ifs.tu-darmstadt.de).
More information about the research and teaching program of the
post-graduate college / graduate school may be found under
