Research Opportunity: Exploring the African Diaspora in Australia

The Australian Research Council funded project offers two PhD scholarships for research on the African Diaspora in Australia. As a PhD candidate, you will conduct ethnographic research with Pentecostal churches in Australia and with African Diasporas in the country.


Project Aims:

The project aims to investigate the challenges faced by African-Australian communities and their embrace of Pentecostalism. The research will explore how Pentecostal churches support these communities' translocal and transnational mobility and sense of belonging.


Key Objectives:
  • Understand the range of challenges African-Australian communities face.
  • Determine why so many of their members join Pentecostal churches.
  • Investigate how Pentecostal churches support these communities' translocal and transnational mobility and sense of belonging.
  • Contribute to policy efforts to improve outcomes for African new arrivals in Australia.

Methodology:

The research will involve investigating questions such as:

  • How do Pentecostal churches support/hinder processes of settlement and 'integration'?
  • How do some Pentecostal megachurches generate transnational religious fields – ones which may harness resources from branches elsewhere in the world?
  • What impact does all of this have on Australian cities' post-secular social landscapes?

Eligibility Criteria:

We welcome applicants from a range of backgrounds including anthropology, sociology, religious studies, African studies, migration studies, or a related field. Applications from students of African heritage are especially welcomed.
