These positions are open to Black and Indigenous scholars in any field of study seeking careers inside or outside of Academe, or both. Successful candidates will pursue the development of a proposed project, but they will also work with their supervisor and other mentors to avail themselves of opportunities provided to present and discuss their works in progress with faculty, students, alumni and the public en route to dissemination in appropriate peer-reviewed fora. The types of knowledge mobilization most useful to the project, the scholar, and the career possibilities help to define in an individualized way the shapes that career development may take. The Provost’s Postdoctoral Fellowships for Black and Indigenous Scholars will support up to 4 successful applicants this year in any field of study. With a salary of $70,000 provided each year for a two-year term, scholars will be able to dedicate their time to pursuing a proposed project, working alongside a supervisor and other mentors, while also gaining access to guidance from faculty, students and alumni.
Any questions can be directed to Kim McIntyre, Postdoctoral Services Coordinator at York University.

"We are committed to supporting IBPOC members of our community, and recognize that historic inequities continue to plague our systems and professional interactions. As part of our commitment to holding space for IBPOC members of the creative community, we are offering two fellowships specifically for IBPOC creators who want to attend the symposium.
These two fellowships waive all symposium fees for the selected IBPOC participants and include a free Oculus Quest Headset to keep after the conference (approximate value: $615). We’re looking for interested IBPOC (Indigenous, Black, People of Colour) creators with a history of work in and facet of XR (Virtual, Augmented, Mixed Reality, etc) or passion for developing work in these emerging platforms. Applicants are asked to fill out the form below submit it before August 15, 2020. Applicants will be selected by the Performance XR Symposium Steering Committee by August 25, 2020 and selected based on a) Experience with XR b) Financial Need, c) Geographic Location. At that time, all applicants will be informed and if unsuccessful, invited to register as a regular delegate. The successful applicants will be asked to participate fully in all symposium activities, provide feedback on the experience so we can learn and do better, and (if willing) engage in documenting their experience at the symposium for sharing on social media platforms and archival / reporting documents. Please note: this fellowship opportunity is only available to Canadian citizens in Canada at this time." https://www.performanceandxr.com/fellowship
