Visiting Researchers

VRFs

Visiting Research Fellows and Associates join ZIPAR for a fixed period to lend specialized expertise and collaborate on priority research areas, enriching our analytical capacity and fostering knowledge exchange. Hosted fellows work closely with ZIPAR researchers on targeted projects, seminars, and policy engagements, bringing fresh perspectives, advanced methodologies, and international best practices that strengthen our evidence-based policy advice. Their presence enhances capacity building through joint publications, workshops, and mentoring, while creating lasting networks that support ZIPAR’s mission to inform sustainable development and policy reform.

At ZIPAR, we nurture the next generation of thinkers and policy leaders.
