We encourage members to share information about the program and seek out potential candidates in our district’s many colleges and universities, as well as among early- to mid-career professionals in our public, nonprofit, and private networks who are working to advance peace and development.
Rotary Peace Fellows pursue advanced study in peace and development fields at Rotary’s partner universities worldwide. The program is rigorous and highly selective, seeking individuals with relevant experience, leadership potential, and a strong commitment to peacebuilding.
Applicants must have a bachelor’s degree, proficiency in English, and professional experience related to peace or development. Rotary and Rotaract members can help by identifying strong candidates in their networks and referring them to the program. Candidates then complete an online application and may connect with a local Rotary club for guidance during the process.
Peace Fellowships are fully funded, covering tuition, room and board, travel, and field study expenses.
To see the impact of the program, read about fellows at the new Rotary Peace Center in Istanbul.
