SOAS University of London MPhil PhD Scholarship Details

SOAS University of London invites applications for one fully funded MPhil/PhD studentship linked to the UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship project Pan-African Frontiers: Reparative Futures and the Reimagining of Global Order.

It is led by Dr Daniel Mulugeta and hosted by the SOAS Centre for Pan-African Studies (CPAS) in the Department of Politics and International Studies.

The project examines Pan-Africanism as a transcontinental political formation linking Africa, the Caribbean, and diasporic communities in debates about global justice, reparations, and institutional reform.

It explores how historically marginalised regions and communities articulate new visions of solidarity, political agency, and global order in response to contemporary crises in multilateralism and global governance.

There is one scholarship available for the 2026/27 academic year.
