Bharti Institute of Public Policy (BIPP-ISB) and Collectives for Integrated Livelihood Initiatives (CInI) are pleased to announce a summer internship to assist in the analysis of livelihood interventions in Central India. Our research program seeks to understand the diversity of livelihood systems in rainfed areas and the role of targeted interventions in enabling adaptive responses that lead to improvements in well-being and human development. Interns will work from home and will be involved in specific aspects of this research exercise, including the possibility of a 2-week fieldwork component in August (if the situation permits).

We invite post-graduate students anywhere in the world to apply and contribute to this exciting research agenda covering rainfed agriculture, livestock, irrigation, gender, and collective institutions. We are interested in proposals from students in the tradition of humanistic social sciences, including Geography, Anthropology, Development Studies, Environmental Studies, and cognate disciplines.

Please apply with your latest CV, a writing sample, and a covering letter (no more than 1 page) describing why you are interested in this fellowship.

Application deadline – May 15, 2020, 11:59 pm.
