As part of a grant by the Ford Fondation to the World Agroforestry Centre (ICRAF) and cooperating CGIAR centres (World Fish, CIFOR and IPGRI), we have the opportunity to support students (especially from Aceh or Nias) who have advanced plans for thesis research projects.

Criteria of the students’ research:

  1. Students (undergraduate or post graduate) from Aceh or Nias are the priorities.
  2. The field research must be conducted in Aceh or Nias
  3. The research should be relevant to the livelihood or INRM issues
  4. The research should be relevant to the post-Tsunami recovery
  5. Students who are intending to continue working in Aceh or Nias after graduation.

For students who are interested, please contact us to check on potential topics (http://www.worldagroforestry.org/sea/W-New/aceh.asp) or submit your proposal (in Bahasa Indonesia or English) that is being discussed with research advisory committees.

The received proposals will be screened by ICRAF with respect to the criteria above and for financial soundness. Required proposals will be funded based on a student attachment contract between ICRAF and the student.

ICRAF will provide:

  1. Financial support (based on contract)
  2. External advisor (from one of the national or international partners) with inputs and references as needed
  3. Opportunity to share research results with potential users so that results contribute the post-Tsunami recovery.

Those who are interested, can submit the proposals and fill the application form (attached) to
