The German Institute of Development and Sustainability (IDOS) is one of the world's leading research institutions and think tanks in the field of global sustainable development.

It provides policy advice and carries out training tasks on the basis of its own independent research. The Research Programme "Inter
- and Transnational Cooperation" is one out of four research programmes at IDOS. One of its clusters analyses the contribution of development policy to the global common good, to which the "Call for Applications" is linked.

Topics for research proposals could link to one or more of the following areas of interest, all of which can be pursued in general or with a focus on specific development policy actors, such as Germany, the United Nations, the European Union, and non-state actors including the private sector:

Politicaleconomy of development policy and/or inter

- and transnational cooperation

Future of development policy / "beyond aid"
New trends in Official Development Assistance (ODA) and / or South-South Cooperation (SSC)
Geopolitics and development (policy)
Interfaces between development policy and other policy areas (climate change, security, foreign policy, etc.)

In 2023, the Research Programme "Inter
- and Transnational Cooperation" offers two (2) short-term visiting researcher positions of
4-6 weeks each
from May to December 2023. The positions offer applicants the opportunity to work on their own original research related to the stated areas of interest. The stay at IDOS provides an opportunity to build institutional linkages, to explore future research collaborations and gain exposure to the unique working environment of a research institute that is also an influential policy think tank.

Interested persons from all levels of seniority and all countries can apply, including PhD students who are in the writing phase of their doctoral work.

Visiting researchers will be hosted at IDOS in Bonn, Germany.
