The Africa Institute of South Africa (AISA) in the HSRC undertakes basic, applied and comparative research devoted to the study of Africa development challenges and opportunities.

The Institute’s mission is to produce evidence-based knowledge from research which is needed to inform African public policy and practice, with special emphasis on sustainable development processes; good governance, human security, peace and security; and science, technology and innovation.

Additionally, the Institute collaborates with other key players on the continent and provides research-based policy advice to African multilateral organisations and government departments on public affairs. The work of the Institute makes a direct contribution to addressing the many dimensions of the study of Africa by Africans and reversing the Continent’s marginalization in the global knowledge economy.

AISA seeks to appoint 1 PhD Interns from 1st January 2018. The internship experience is intensive and seeks mature individuals who are able to work independently as well as in a team.
