The Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) Program is now accepting applications for the 2022 DHS Fellows Program. The DHS Fellows Program, funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), is designed to increase the capacity of countries to conduct further analysis of DHS Program data.
The primary objectives of the program are:
- To teach Fellows to analyze and conduct research with DHS Program data.
- To strengthen skills that Fellows will use to integrate DHS Program data into their teaching.
- To increase the ability of Fellows to strengthen the capacity of others to use DHS Program data at their home institutions.
WORTH
- Each Fellow will be awarded a $2,000 honorarium to cover research expenses which will be paid in instalments based upon satisfactory completion of the deliverables.
- The DHS Program will cover economy airfare from the home university, lodging, and per diem expenses for each Fellow to attend both workshops.

- Angola, Benin, Burundi, Gambia, Liberia, Mali, Sierra Leone, and South Africa
- Maldives, Papua New Guinea, and Timor-Leste
- Latin America and the Caribbean: Guatemala and Haiti
- Other regions: Armenia and Tajikistan
- All team members must be based full-time at the home university. Applications must be from teams comprised of three members from the same university who teach and/or conduct research in demography, public health, economics, sociology, geography, or other social sciences.
- Individuals who have already participated in a data analysis workshop conducted by The DHS Program are not eligible, although individuals who have only participated in a Service Provision Assessment (SPA) or Geographic Information Systems (GIS) workshop facilitated by The DHS Program are still eligible to apply.
