The Harvard Center for International Development (CID) brings researchers and practitioners to Harvard University through our Fellowship Programs.
CID's tight-knit research community welcomes individuals who seek to spend time researching, writing, and engaging with the Harvard community. Our fellows range from early-stage researchers who are on track to join PhD programs to senior practitioners who bring their life experiences to CID through hosting their own CID Student Seminars and presenting at a CID Speaker Series.
Harvard University is committed to recruiting a diverse group of faculty, students, and staff. We work to ensure that our appointments and selection process consciously identify and evaluate people from underrepresented groups. We also actively strive to remove sources of unconscious bias. CID invites applications from women, minorities, and those whose background and experience will bring additional dimensions to the community.

Growth Lab fellows push the frontiers of economic growth and development policy research, collaborate with policymakers to design actions, and share insights through teaching, tools and publications, in the pursuit of inclusive prosperity. Growth Lab offers predoctoral, postdoctoral and visiting fellowships.
The Reimagining the Economy project explores local labor market, industrial, and development policies, combined with practitioner insights, to produce multidisciplinary scholarship to reshape narratives about how we achieve inclusive prosperity.
CID will occasionally hire research fellows to work closely with CID Faculty Affiliates on specific research projects.
Have you ever considered how our broader social backdrop influences our thoughts and actions in the economic sphere? That’s precisely what social economics explores. It unravels the ways our societal contexts and broader social concerns shape our thoughts, views, and reasonings about economic policies and issues.
