Peace and Social Change Fellowship at Colombia University

APPLICATION DEADLINE NOON (EST) November 5, 2018

The Women, Peace and Security (WPS) program at Columbia University is pleased to announce the launch of the Peace and Social Change Fellowship Program. The fellowship is designed to generate knowledge, build skills, strengthen relationships and exchange strategies among frontline women changemakers working on issues of social change, justice, and, more broadly, security for all people.

Through six-month fellowship cycles, cohorts of women changemakers representing a variety of geographic and thematic areas will come together as a critical learning community to learn from and with each other, both virtually and in person. As part of the fellowship, each fellow will be invited to bring representatives from their respective organizations/movements for two in-person workshops: one at the start of the fellowship and one at the end. All costs related to the in-person convenings will be covered.
