Would you like to contribute to creating peace and preventing conflict? Could developing your peace-building skills enable you to have greater impact in your nonprofit work? If yes, consider applying for a Rotary Peace Fellowship.
What are Rotary Peace Fellowships?
Each year, Rotary selects up to 100 individuals from around the world to receive fully funded academic fellowships at one of their peace centers. These fellowships cover tuition and fees, room and board, round-trip transportation, and all internship and field-study expenses. Two types of peace fellowships are available.
Master’s degree
This scholarship offers master’s degree fellowships at premier universities in fields related to peace and conflict prevention and resolution. Programs last 15 to 24 months and require a practical internship of two to three months during the academic break. Each year, 50 master’s degree fellowships are awarded at universities in North Carolina, Japan, England, Australia and Sweden.
Professional development certificate
Experienced professionals working in peace-related fields who want to enhance their professional skills may want to pursue a three-month program in peace and conflict prevention and resolution at Chulalongkorn University in Thailand. This program incorporates two to three weeks of field study. Fifty (50) participants are selected each year.
