L.H.M. Ling is a professor of International Relations and a pioneer in the field of Postcolonialism. Her research has shaped the field and its subsequent thought development in major ways influencing notable scholars and students alike. The following compilation of comments by those closest to L.H.M. Ling shall highlight her impact on this world: “[…] we are going to miss how Lily took down male chauvinists and Orientalists at IR conferences with her trademarked sense of humour […].” “[…] Lily was a larger than life figure in advancing the field of International Affairs. She was brilliant, intuitive and often impossibly inscrutable. Lily touched and inspired our lives with her intellectual rigor, grace, charm, love, kindness, generosity, scintillating conversation, and zest for life. Lily was a pioneer in the field who became the champion-- an eminent scholar that courageously changed the direction of international relations and the way we study it […].”

Each year, GARC awards one fully funded fellowship for a dedicated researcher from around the world to research at our research centre. Through academic training, research, and self-growth opportunities, the L.H.M. Ling Memorial Fellowship develops the capacity of critical thinkers in the field of Global Politics to become effective catalysts for emancipation and shifting marginalized stakeholders in world politics into the centre of attention. Our fellowship programme is designed for researchers with an interdisciplinary background in Social Sciences along with a research interest in critical philosophical and/or theoretical thought.
