KNUST S.T. Nankani Scholarship - 2022/2023

The University of Siegen / Centre for Planning and Evaluation of Social Services (ZPE), in cooperation with the Department of Social Work and the Centre for Gender Studies and Advocacy (CEGENSA), University of Ghana, Legon, seek qualified candidates from relevant academic units within the College of Humanities (COH), University of Ghana, to apply for PhD research scholarships.

The LICOT-WASO project is a scientific research to examine the social structures that exist in Ghana and other West African countries and their impact on the life courses of people with disabilities. It seeks to focus on the situation with persons with disabilities in West Africa particularly Ghana both in and between the following life phases- early childhood, adolescence, young adulthood and old age. Of interest is how social norms are constructed and institutionalized in the life course patterns for persons with disabilities and the dynamics of change in how social modernization processes have influenced the construction of life courses. The interplay between informal structures (such as the family, neighbourhood) with formal structures (i.e. government and charity organizations), and how these influence the life courses of persons with disabilities is relevant.
