<p>Iso Lomso means ‘the eye of tomorrow’ in isiXhosa: seeing towards the future, laying the foundations for tomorrow. The programme is aimed at African scholars who have obtained a doctoral degree within the preceding seven years and who hold an academic position at a university or research institution anywhere in Africa. Candidates should have established a research programme and have completed a post-doctoral fellowship or equivalent post-PhD programme. All disciplines are considered.</p>
<p><strong>Background</strong></p>
<p>An important priority for STIAS is to strengthen a culture of research on the continent. It is especially important to nurture a new generation of African scholars to provide the intellectual leadership needed for future development. For this purpose, STIAS has established an early career research fellowship programme called Iso Lomso. The translation of the isiXhosa words ‘iso lomso’ is ‘the eye of tomorrow’ and connotes seeing into the future, working towards the future, preparing for the future, and laying foundations for tomorrow.Iso Lomso aims to address the gap that exists between completion of the Ph.D. and becoming an established scholar in Africa. While there is increasing support for doctoral study and for post-doctoral fellowships, it is during the extended post-doctoral period that the greatest loss of talent occurs.</p>
<p>Iso Lomso takes its cue from the ethos and objectives of STIAS. It does not offer an alternative programme to the regular fellows’ programme, but complements and builds on the proven and successful model of the Institute. It aims at enhancing the existing cross-fertilization of minds by broadening its scope through the inclusion of a younger generation.</p>
<p>Moreover, the programme will be guided by the Institute’s emphasis on interdisciplinary research and its goal of creating research networks within and beyond Africa.</p>
<p>True to the nature of an Institute for Advanced Study STIAS does not provide access to experimental facilities or facilitate field work. Research projects with a predominantly experimental methodology will in general only be considered where the experimental or field work is funded by the home or another institution. In such cases, the proposal must provide information on existing funding and a clear indication of the research aspects of the project that will form the focus of the STIAS residencies.</p>
<p><strong>Iso Lomso Fellows enjoy:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>a three-year attachment to STIAS during which time they may spend a total of ten months in residence at STIAS to develop and pursue a long-term research programme;</li>
<li>the possibility of a residency at a sister institute for advanced study in North America, Europe or elsewhere;</li>
<li>funding to attend up to two international conferences or training workshops anywhere in the world;</li>
<li>possible support to convene a workshop with collaborators at STIAS;</li>
<li>lecturer replacement subsidy for the fellow’s home institution during residency periods.</li>

<p><strong>Details of the fellowship</strong></p>
<p>Iso Lomso fellowships provide a three-year attachment to STIAS to enable fellows to develop and conduct a long-term research programme of their preference. The aim is to facilitate and support them towards becoming established scholars in their fields.</p>
<p>The main means of support is STIAS residencies. Residential periods will be agreed mutually between the fellow, his or her home institution and STIAS, and may vary between six weeks and five months per residency. A first period of residency will typically be of longer duration to be taken up during 2022, followed by two further residencies through 2024. While in residence fellows receive regular STIAS fellow support which includes:</p>
<ul>
<li>an economy return flight;</li>
<li>comfortable accommodation within walking distance from the institute;</li>
<li>individual offices equipped with a PC, telephone and printer;</li>
<li>a monthly stipend for daily living costs;</li>
<li>access to the Stellenbosch University library (including electronic resources) and a high-speed internet connection;</li>
<li>participation in the regular STIAS fellows programme, including daily lunch, weekly fellows’ seminars, STIAS public lectures and social events;</li>
<li>a child care subsidy for fellows accompanied by young children while in residence.</li>
</ul>
<p>Iso Lomso fellows’ home institution will be eligible to apply for a lecturer replacement subsidy during residency periods. This will be negotiated on a case-by-case basis with the home institution after the fellowships have been awarded. It will be the fellow and the home institution’s responsibility to recruit replacement lecturers.</p>
<p>While not in residence at STIAS Iso Lomso fellows will continue their regular academic duties at their home institution. During these periods fellows may apply for a range of research sponsorship interventions. These elements will be considered in a flexible manner to ensure that each fit optimally into the research programme. They may include:</p>
<ul>
<li>a subsequent residency at a sister Institute for Advanced Study or relevant research institution in North America, Europe or elsewhere (this will form part of the ten months’ residency allocation; the fellow’s preferences for potential host institutions will be considered);</li>
<li>funding to attend up to two relevant academic conferences or research training events (covering travel, accommodation and<br />participation fees);</li>
<li>limited project funding for key interventions in the research programme;</li>
<li>the possibility of hosting a workshop at STIAS or their at their home institution as a means of strengthening the fellow’s scholarly network and research impact.</li>
</ul>
<p>Applicants are encouraged to consider which of these elements they would like to include in the pre-proposal timeline. These elements will be planned and finalised with Iso Lomso fellows during their initial period of residency.</p>
