Project Pericles Civic Fellowship Opportunity – May 11

Posted by Project Pericles on March 31, 2026

Project Pericles is pleased to invite proposals from faculty and staff at any higher education institution for the new Pericles Civic Fellowship. The Fellowship supports thoughtfully designed initiatives that translate civic learning from concept to practice in classrooms, in communities, and across differences.

Each award provides a $3,000 award to test or advance a focused project that demonstrates innovation, collaboration, and the potential for lasting integration or institutional adoption. Fellows will join a peer cohort of practitioners across institutions and contribute their work to the broader civic learning community. The project themes for this fellowship are:

• Civic Identity & Participation
• Community Engaged Learning
• Building Bridges Across Difference
• Classics and the Contemporary

This fellowship extends transformative opportunities to any higher education institution with a priority for applicants from public institutions, community colleges, and minority-serving Institutions.

The deadline to apply is May 11, 2026.

For more details, see the website or the full RFP.

You can reach out to Project Pericles’ Associate Director, Arielle del Rosario, at arielle@projectpericles.org with any questions.
