About the Organization

The primary obstacle for gender equality is the persistent lack of bodily autonomy and integrity for girls and women. Led by and representing feminist movements and youth advocates in the majority of the world, Women Deliver plays a pivotal role in global collective action for gender equality. Our mission is to protect and promote the bodily autonomy of girls, women, and gender-diverse people, focusing specifically on their control over their sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR). We believe that gender equality cannot be achieved unless girls, women, and gender-diverse people have the freedom to make fundamental choices about their own bodies, sexuality, and health.

We aspire to be a feminist organization, committed to continual evolution and learning. Our values underpin how we show up in the movement.

About the Fellowship  

The Asia Health Policy Program at the Shorenstein Asia-Pacific Research Center (Shorenstein APARC) promotes a comparative understanding of health and health policy in the Asia-Pacific region. From its inception, the program has been committed to fostering the next generation of Asia health policy researchers. Each year the program offers a postdoctoral fellowship position to a recent doctoral graduate.

The postdoctoral fellow participates in the program while undertaking original research on contemporary health or healthcare policy of high relevance to low- and middle-income countries in the Asia-Pacific region. We welcome fellowship applications from candidates studying evidence-based health policy using a variety of disciplinary perspectives, such as public policy, public health, economics, demography, sociology, political science, anthropology, law, medicine, health services research, and related fields.

Appointments begin in the fall quarter of the academic year. The fellowships are limited to recent PhDs: applicants cannot be more than three years past the awarding of their doctoral degree (or no more than six years past the awarding of their M.D.) when the fellowship starts. They must have degree conferral and approval no later than June 30 prior to the fellowship start date (that is, no later than June 30, 2026 for 2026-27 fellowships starting in fall 2026).

The 2026-2027 AHPP postdoctoral fellow is required to be in residence for the duration of the appointment, present their research findings in Center seminars, and participate in the Center’s publication program. The postdoctoral fellowship is at minimum a 10-month appointment with a salary commensurate with Stanford policy and based on the annual rate of $80,000 (to be prorated based on the 10-month duration), plus $3,000 for research expenses.
