Rotary World Peace Fellowships

Posted by Rual Perkins

In 1999, The Rotary Foundation launched the Rotary Centers for International Studies in peace and conflict resolution, a partnership with seven leading universities around the world to provide advanced educational opportunities for a group of Rotary World Peace Fellows chosen from various countries and cultures.

Each year 60 fellows are selected to begin two-year master's-level degrees or certificate programs in conflict resolution, peace studies, and international relations. Each Rotary district may nominate one candidate for a world-competitive selection process every year. The first Rotary World peace Fellows began their studies in the 2002-2003 academic year.
