The Rotary Peace Fellowship
 Candidates for the Peace Fellowship seek to make
a significant impact on the world by promoting
tolerance and cooperation.
 Rotary selects 100 dedicated and passionate
professionals each year to receive fully funded
fellowships to study at the Rotary Peace Centers.
 In just over a decade, the Rotary Peace Centers
have trained more than 900 fellows for careers in
peace building.
 Many alumni go on to serve as leaders in national
governments, NGOs, the military, law
enforcement, and international organizations like
the United Nations and World Bank.
The M.A. Program in Peace and
Conflict Resolution
 Masters degree fellowships
are offered 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, up to 50 masters
degree fellowships are
awarded at five different
institutions.
Professional Development Certificate
 For experienced professionals working in
peace-related fields who want to enhance
their professional skills, a three-month
program in peace and conflict prevention and
resolution is offered at Chulalongkorn
University in Thailand.
 This program incorporates two to three weeks
of field study.
 50 certificates are awarded each year.
