UNU-IAS Postdoctoral Fellowships

INTRODUCCIÓN

In April 1996, the UN Secretary–General inaugurated UNU-IAS as an 
in–house community of scholars mandated to research issues located at 
the intersection between societal and natural systems. The Institute’s 
mission is to advance knowledge and to promote learning for policy 
making to meet the challenges of sustainable development. As an advanced 
studies institute, UNU-IAS is, by virtue of its nature, forward-looking 
and flexible. Our programmatic structure is multidisciplinary and dynamic.

In October 2000 UNU-IAS added a Postdoctoral Fellowship to its 
postgraduate education programme. This programme serves as a complement 
to the PhD Fellowship Programme that has already been established as one 
of the premier activities of the institute. So far, more than 150 
fellows from some 50 countries have passed through the PhD and 
Postdoctoral Fellowship Programmes. Of those completing the programmes, 
about one third has been women, and developing country participants have 
outnumbered developed country participants.

The Postdoctoral Fellowship Programme targets five fellowship positions 
each year for a period of ten months. The Fellowship Programme has four 
core aims:

To provide young scholars at the postdoctoral level, particularly from 
developing countries, with an opportunity to experience the unique 
international academic environment of UNU-IAS.

To provide these young scholars with an opportunity to participate in 
and contribute to the research activities of UNU-IAS in regard to issues 
of pressing global importance.

To provide an opportunity for young scholars from developing countries 
to interact with the Japanese academic community and, in doing so, 
provide a conduit between the host country and developing country 
academia and also the host country and the UN system.

To provide UNU-IAS and its academic community with an opportunity to 
benefit from the diverse knowledge, background, and experience offered 
by high caliber young scholars from around the world.

ÁREAS DE ESTUDIO:

BIODIPLOMACY

Studies on linking environmental management, conservation, sustainable 
use and equitable benefit sharing with national development, 
mainstreaming environment into plans to achieving MDGs, support 
development of global policy on polar regions, supporting effective 
implementation of multilateral environmental agreement, linking poverty 
reduction strategies with environmental management plans and capacity 
building related to the above. Studies related to the management of 
marine natural resources beyond national jurisdictions.

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOVERNANCE

Studies on the governance and effectiveness of institutions for 
sustainable development, interlinkages/interplay between MEAs, both at 
global and regional levels; ethics and the role of environmental 
principles in international governance, WTO and sustainable development 
in developing countries, development of markets and policies for 
environmental goods and services, WTO and investment in developing 
countries, and impacts of WTO accession on sustainable development 
particularly sectoral analysis on health, welfare, poverty reduction, 
culture and environment.

SCIENCE POLICY FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

The UNU-IAS Science Policy for Sustainable Development Programme 
explores policy research and capacity development for developing 
countries, with particular focus on the following issues: Linking 
science and policy for effective management of global environment; role 
of science and policy in developing countries for achieving sustainable 
development. The Programme will have specific focus on issues of 
biotechnology governance and technology transfer during the current 
period of research.

ECOSYSTEMS & PEOPLE

Studies on the linkages between human well-being and ecosystems; poverty 
and environment; poverty reductions strategies/Millennium Development 
Goals related to environment; pro-poor markets for ecosystem services, 
roles of MEAs in improving human well-being; and ecosystem assessment 
leading towards integrated policy making; particularly focused on the 
development of training and teaching materials for policymakers in these 
areas. Also, this programme has an existing concentration on Urban 
Ecosystems - including the application of the ecosystem approach to the 
study and management of cities. Current priorities include exploring the 
drivers of urban environmental and ecosystem change, urban metabolism 
and other ecosystem approaches to understanding cities. The programme is 
also exploring the relevance and effectiveness of ecosystem approach 
influenced policies as they are applied to urban regions.

EDUCATION FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

Further development and implementation of the UNU strategy to promote 
education for sustainable development (EfSD) and the Decade of Education 
for Sustainable Development (DESD), which started in January 2005. 
Possible topic for research may include, for instance, case studies of 
Regional Centers of Expertise (RCE) on EfSD regarding their development 
processes and critical factors for success and failure, development of 
curricula for priority topics on EfSD etc. An RCE is a group of 
organizations that deliver EfSD at regional and local levels. Research 
may document how an RCE is developed to translate and articulate a 
global vision of education for sustainable development into the context 
of the regional/local community in which it operates, thereby critically 
examining whether an RCE can serve as a platform to promote dialogues 
among EfSD stakeholders towards locally relevant and culturally 
appropriate EfSD.

SUSTAINABLE MANAGEMENT OF SATOYAMA (ISHIKAWA INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION 
RESEARCH CENTER-IICRP)

Analytical research on sustainable management of satoyama includes 
analysis on conservation and sustainable use of ecosystems and 
biodiversity in satoyama; preservation of both tangible and intangible 
cultural heritage of satoyama; innovative ways to improve local and 
regional economy by using ecosystem services existing in satoyama; and, 
assessment of formal and informal institutions, actors and rules for 
better management of satoyama. The geographical focus of studies would 
be preferably Japan and Asia, but other regions including Europe, North 
America, Oceania and Africa will be considered.

Research proposals should relate clearly to one of the above current 
research areas of UNU-IAS.

RESPONSABILIDADES

Each fellow is expected to help strengthen the intellectual capacity of 
UNU-IAS and enhance the spirit of the academic community.

Under the supervision and general direction of the Programme/Project 
Manager, each fellow will work on specific research projects, or

JSPS-UNU FELLOWSHIP PROGRAMME

INTRODUCCIÓN:

The JSPS-UNU Postdoctoral Fellowship Programme was launched in 2002, and 
is jointly organised by UNU and Japan Society for the Promotion of 
Science (JSPS). It is designed to provide opportunities for promising, 
highly qualified, young researchers to conduct cooperative research 
under the leadership of their host researchers of Japanese universities 
and research institutions especially in the fields relevant to the main 
thematic focus of UNU-IAS, located in Yokohama, and UNU Centre, located 
in Tokyo.

UNU acts as the nominating authority for the JSPS-UNU Programme, and 
UNU-IAS administers the programme on behalf of UNU in the nominating 
process. Candidates apply to UNU-IAS using the prescribed application 
form with the following documents: recommendation letters, and a 
certificate of his/her Ph.D. degree, etc.

It is necessary for applicants to indicate the prospective host 
researcher at the time of submitting the application. The list of 
prospective host researchers and their areas of specialisation is 
available as an example for candidates. (It is not necessary to obtain 
confirmation of acceptance from the prospective host researcher at this 
stage.) After screening the candidates, UNU will assist in receiving 
acceptance from the host researchers for the short–listed candidates. 
After the host researcher is secured for each short-listed candidate, 
UNU will make nominations to JSPS, which contributes financially to this 
programme. The final award decision will be made by JSPS and Awards 
Letters will be issued by JSPS to the fellowship awardees. An advisor 
for each fellowship awardee will be selected for the period of research 
in Japan from among the UNU (UNU-IAS or UNU Centre) faculty members 
after consultation with the host researcher.
