About the foundation

The Glasgow-Warsaw Dekaban Liddle Foundation is a collaboration between the University of Glasgow, the University of Warsaw and the Piast Institute. The Foundation facilitates exchanges to enhance the quality of Polish science and education. Dr Anatole and Mrs Pamela Dekaban established the Foundation at the University of Glasgow in 1990. Since then, it has promoted the mutual exchange of expertise between Polish and British higher education institutions.

The fellowship offers Polish economists, broadly defined, the possibility to visit the University of Glasgow. The research visits allow them to gain a more comprehensive experience of economic theory and practice. And vice versa, Glasgow academics can as well visit Poland. Participation in the Foundation’s fellowship scheme is directed by but not limited to Glasgow and Warsaw and may include other British and Polish institutions.

Areas of interest to the Committee may include cognate social sciences and applied economics.
