Rotary Foundation invites applications for Peace Center Fellowships

Each year, the Rotary Foundation awards up to 130 fully funded fellowships for dedicated leaders from around the world to study at one of its peace centers.

Through academic training, practice, and global networking opportunities, the Rotary Peace Centers program develops leaders who become catalysts for peace. Fellowships cover tuition and fees, room and board, roundtrip transportation, and all internship and field-study expenses.

Each year, the foundation awards up to 50 fellowships for master’s degrees and 80 for certificate studies at premier universities.

Master’s Degree Programs: Candidates study peace and development issues with research-informed teaching and a diverse student body. The programs last 15 to 24 months and include a two- to three-month field study, which participants design themselves.

Professional Development Certificate Program: During the one-year blended learning program, experienced peace and development professionals with diverse backgrounds gain practical skills to promote peace within their communities and regions. Fellows complete field studies and design and carry out a social change initiative. This program is intended for working professionals.

For complete program guidelines, information about program alumni, and application instructions, see the Rotary website.

Deadline: May 15, 2025
