Summer Field Fellowship
The Summer Field Fellowship is a full-time, hands-on placement where you’ll work within a conflict resolution or peace organization, locally or globally. Your placement helps you explore your interests and expand your knowledge of the conflict resolution field.
You’ll experience firsthand how conflict resolution unfolds, putting your skills in dialogue, research, conflict analysis and more into practice in the field. Our students find a range of opportunities, from supporting community-driven social justice efforts to advancing peacemaking around the world. No matter what you choose, this fellowship immerses you in real-world challenges, preparing you for a dynamic social-impact career.
