Call for applications: Residential Fellows – Migration Politics (University of Amsterdam)

The editorial team of the journal Migration Politics warmly welcome paper proposals for our 2025 authors’ fellowship in residence programme. We are seeking submissions from scholars conducting innovative and inspiring research on the politics involved in representing, controlling, and managing migration. Successful applicants will spend a one week intensive residence period at the University of Amsterdam in October or November 2025 to develop their ideas into a manuscript ready for submission. In the run-up to the residence, fellows will participate in virtual feedback sessions with the other upcoming fellows and expert discussants. The residency scheme covers a round trip to Amsterdam and one week accommodation for one person. The author residency programme is open to scholars with a PhD at all career stages as well as to PhD candidates.

Scholars taking part in the author residency programme are expected to submit their papers for review to the Migration Politics journal that offers rigorous, single-anonymised peer review and full open access without article processing charges (platinum open access).

The next deadline for submissions is 15 March 2025. For further information, please see the Call for Papers on our website.

We also warmly recommend consulting the Frequently Asked Questions on the website.
