To apply for a residency at Sarai, please send us a CV with ideas/specific plans about what you wish to do while you are in Delhi, and what you would expect from your time at Sarai. We are in a position to offer working space, basic office and communication facilities and internet connectivity during the residency, and could help in finding you accommodation. We recommend that you bring your own laptop or any other equipment that you may require for your work. While at Sarai you could be invited to conduct workshops, participate in seminars and contribute to the online discussion lists hosted at Sarai. The Centre for the Study of Developing Societies (CSDS), where Sarai is located, has an excellent library that you would be free to use.

As a rule we do not offer any monetary support for travel, accommodation or costs to people who want to come on residencies or research fellowships to Sarai from the European Union, the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand. In outstanding cases, we may give letters in support of applications for funds for residencies/fellowships; requests for these should be communicated well in advance.

We are in a position to offer basic funding for travel and accommodation to (non-Indian) applicants from South Asia and South East Asia. Support for applicants from countries and spaces other than these is contingent on availability of funds and facilities.
