EASA is pleased to announce the third edition of its Academic Mentorship Programme for the 2026–2027 academic year.
Following two successful editions, the programme continues to offer free, fully remote mentoring for early and mid career anthropologists. The mentoring relationship provides an independent space to discuss academic career development, publishing, research trajectories, grant applications, teaching, professional networks and other issues relevant to the mentee’s career. The programme is free of charge.
Apply to become a Mentee!
The programme is open to EASA members who are late stage PhD researchers, postdoctoral researchers, scholars in precarious or contingent employment, assistant professors, or colleagues at a comparable career stage who received their PhD no more than eight years ago. Racialized and minoritized researchers are particularly encouraged to apply.
Applications for mentees are open until 25 October 2026.
Please complete the electronic application form by the deadline:
We are looking for new Mentors!
As interest in the programme has increased each year, we would also like to expand our pool of mentors so that more colleagues can participate. EASA members with relevant academic experience who would be interested in becoming mentors are invited to contact us directly at: S.doughan[at]gold.ac.uk and panas.karampampas[at]easaonline.org
