Center for 21st Century Studies calls for 2026-27 research fellows

The Center for 21st Century Studies is accepting research fellow applications through Dec. 5 from researchers whose work aligns with some aspect of its 2026-27 theme, “Slow Action.”

Each year, C21 offers fellowships to UWM faculty and academic staff that provide the time, space and collegial support to generate new knowledge and ideas.

This year of slow action will explore the practices, methodologies, histories and theories of collective organizing across communities and institutions, with a focus on building values-rooted systems and deliberate actionable pathways that endure over time to support shared goals. We welcome multiple interpretations of this open topic.

Application deadline: Friday, December 5, 2025, 11:59 PM

Full details and how to apply are on the C21 webpage.
