The Jacob Robinson Institute invites applications for up to two post-doctoral fellowships for the 2026-2027 academic year. We seek researchers whose studies align with the Institute’s thematic areas, including minority politics, national self-determination, collective and individual rights, reparation for grave human rights abuses, Israel's statehood and diaspora relations, forced displacement, human rights and humanitarianism, as well as democracy and the rule of law.

Eligibility: Candidates within five years of PhD approval (extended by one year per child). Applicants who have not yet completed their PhD may apply, provided they submit their dissertation by October 1, 2026. Open to researchers affiliated with Israeli and non-Israeli universities.

Fellows receive a stipend of approximately 12,000 NIS per month, office space on Mount Scopus campus, and are expected to dedicate their time fully to research while participating in the Institute's academic activities. Upon completion of their stay, fellows are expected to submit a manuscript for peer-reviewed publication.

Deadline: February 25th, 2026
