DESCRIPTION:Applications are welcome from participants in both bilateral and multilateral (IARC) project. Applicants must be working with an ACIAR project in a current partner developing country. \nApplicants must be citizens of the country in which they are working. \nTo be eligible for selection\, a candidate must: \n\nat the time of applying\, hold qualifications that would be assessed to be equivalent to at least an Australian bachelor’s degree in a discipline that is relevant to the proposed area of postgraduate study;\nbe a scientist or economist from the developing country partner\, who is actively involved in a collaborative research project supported by ACIAR at the time of application (in some cases\, ACIAR will consider supporting researchers from “advanced pipeline” projects\, i.e. in cases where a full project proposal has been approved by ACIAR);\nbe jointly supported in the application by the Australian and partner country Project Leaders;\nobtain approval from the employing institution who must agree to the absence of the candidate should he/she receive a Fellowship for the period involved in obtaining the postgraduate qualification; and\ndemonstrate that he/she is employed on a permanent rather than short-term contract basis.\n\nWithin the Fellowship Scheme\, ACIAR strives to meet the Australian government policy on gender equity\, and reflect ACIAR’s training policies and strategies. \nAPPLICATION PROCEDURE \nThere is one call for nominations per year. In view of the impact of COVID-19\, DFAT has reviewed the current schedule for the 2021 Intake of Australia Awards Scholarships applications and advises that the closing date for the submission of the 2021 intake application deadline will be extended from 30 April 2020 to 30 June 2020. \nAn offer of an award is only valid for the Australian academic year following the calendar year in which the offer is made.  \nIt is important that Project Leaders check the eligibility of proposed candidates before application\, including the selection criteria used by the Committee in the competitive process. Any queries may be directed to the appropriate Research Program Manager or the Project Officer\, Capacity Building: Fellowships@aciar.gov.au. \nFor further information please read the Australia Awards John Allwright Fellowship guidelines below. \nImpact of the John Allwright Fellowship Scheme – Survey ReportBuilding on the John Allwright Fellowship Scheme \nJohn Allwright Fellowship Guidelines 2020 – PDFOASIS-ACIAR Online applicant user guide 2020 – PDF \nOfficial website \nSource: https://aseanop.com/australia-awards-john-allwright-fellowship-2021/ \n

SUMMARY:CALL FOR PAPERS: Transboundary Environmental Governance in Southeast Asia
DESCRIPTION:Southeast Asia is among the most rapidly developing and globally connected parts of the world. The pace and scale of regional integration has accelerated and expanded alongside the megatrends of population growth\, urbanisation\, capitalism and industrialisation. Cross-border governance regimes have mobilised around the conservation or sustainable commodification of regional environmental goods such as biodiversity\, food and water security\, and carbon sequestration. There have also been coordinated transboundary efforts to build resilience to regional and global shocks including extreme weather events linked to human-induced climate change (for example\, floods\, droughts and biomass wildfires)\, air and water pollution\, and the emergence and spread of infectious diseases. \nThese complex environmental issues require cross-border environmental governance\, both because they cannot be addressed within the boundaries of administrations or individual countries and also because they generate cascading and far-reaching impacts such as market fluctuations\, livelihood transformations and human displacement and resettlement. \nThe purpose of this inter-disciplinary workshop is to explore how\, why\, when and what forms of transboundary environmental governance are emerging in Southeast Asia. We are interested in the submission of papers that examine the creation\, operation and maintenance of transboundary governance regimes that are designed to address one of two generalizable sets of issues. These are: (a) conserving or sustainably utilising natural resources; and/or (b) strengthening resilience to regional or global shocks that connect place-based governance systems with wider socioeconomic and ecological processes. \nWe encourage the submission of papers from across the social and natural sciences and particularly welcome interdisciplinary engagements. The overall premise of this workshop is that transboundary forms of governance comprising multiple stakeholders are required to address environmental issues that cannot be settled at a single organisational scale of human interest. Questions that will guide the workshop discussions include: \n\nWhat transboundary forms of governance exist in Southeast Asia to sustain resources and habitats and/or to deal with emerging environmental threats and crises?\nTo what extent do transboundary environmental governance systems complement or bridge gaps in formal state policy regimes?\nCan theorising the transboundary dimensions of environmental governance lend insights into more effective and inclusive pathways to conservation practice\, sustainable resource management and disaster mitigation?\nHow has the expanding role of markets in governance systems in Southeast Asia informed the priorities of transboundary environmental governance regimes\, and to what effect?\n\nSUBMISSION OF ABSTRACTS \nPaper proposals should include a title\, an abstract (250-300 words) and a brief personal biography of 150 words for submission by 30 June 2020. Please submit your proposal using the provided submission form to Mr Marcel Bandur at arimar@nus.edu.sg. Successful applicants will be notified by 7 July 2020 and will be required to submit an original and unpublished draft paper (5\,000-8\,000 words) by 15 November 2020 for restricted circulation and discussion among the workshop participants to be eligible for financial support. \nWORKSHOP CONVENORS \nDr Michelle Miller\nAsia Research Institute\, National University of Singapore \nProf David Taylor\nDepartment of Geography\, National University of Singapore \nProf Jonathan Rigg\nUniversity of Bristol\, UK \nContact Info:  \nMs Tay Minghua\nAsia Research Institute\, National University of Singapore\nAS8 Level 7\, 10 Kent Ridge Crescent\, Singapore 119260\nEmail: minghua.tay@nus.edu.sg\nTel: (65) 6516 4224\nFax: (65) 6779 1428 \nURL: https://ari.nus.edu.sg/upcoming-events/ \nSource: https://networks.h-net.org/node/19397/discussions/6178391/call-papers-transboundary-environmental-governance-southeast-asia?fbclid=IwAR3AdpuNOu4zBi_rcVKZ-Fw4nY9F86qy0e5LiDBCvl0ASAKJkoV9canIf1w \n
