The United Nations University - Institute of Natural Resources in Africa (UNU-INRA) offers funding for research related to the development and management of natural resources in Africa.
The Visiting Scholars Program is for researchers in Africa and worldwide who have their research data, but who need work stations and funding to be able to prepare publications. Applications are invited from PhDs in agricultural sciences, environmental sciences, economics, social sciences, international relations, law, and related disciplines.
UNU particularly invites female Africans to apply. UNU will provide US$1,500 per month for researchers who spend at least three months with UNU-INRA in Accra.
The deadline for applications is 15 March 2012. Link
