The Agriculture, Nutrition & Health (ANH) Academy has opened applications for the second round of its Science‑Policy Fellowships for 2026–27, offering a unique opportunity for researchers to translate scientific evidence into actionable policy. These one‑year, full‑time Fellowships aim to support evidence‑based policy decisions that increase access to healthy diets and reduce food loss and waste in Sub‑Saharan Africa and South Asia.
Up to three Fellows will be selected to work with both a Policy Mentor from a public sector organisation and a Research Mentor from an academic or research institution, tailoring research to inform real‑world decision‑making. Fellows will spend significant time embedded within a policy organisation, strengthening ties between science and policy processes.
Applications are open now and must be submitted by 28 February 2026. Fellowships will begin between June and December 2026, and each award includes a competitive stipend of £52,600 to support the Fellow for the 12‑month period.
Candidates with a doctoral degree in agriculture, nutrition, health or related fields are encouraged to apply, especially early‑career scientists and those connected to institutions in the targeted regions.
