Dear District 5930 Rotary Club Leaders and Other Rotarians:
 
As Chair of the Rotary Peace Fellowship Program for District 5930, I am pleased to announce that applications are now being accepted by Rotary International for the Rotary Peace Fellowship Professional Development Certificate Programs and the Master’s Degree Programs. These initiatives are designed to increase the capacity of existing leaders to prevent and resolve conflict by offering academic training, field experiences, and professional networking. 
 
A description of both programs and the criteria to help determine the eligibility of individuals interested in applying for these programs are included in the attached documents.
 
Additional information about the Rotary Peace Fellowship Program is available at: https://www.rotary.org/en/our-programs/peace-fellowships.
 
The application deadline for both programs is May 15, 2021.  Interviews with applicants will be held through zoom on May 29, 2021.
 
Applicants will be provided the specific time for their interview, login information, and a guide to help them prepare for the interview prior to this date.
 
Thank you very much in advance for sharing this information with interested individuals.
 
If you know of someone who might be a good candidate for this fellowship, please use the referral form link on the Peace Fellowship Application Announcement to submit the individual’s name and contact information to Rotary International (RI). RI staff will then provide this individual with the required information to apply for the fellowship.  
 
Feel free to contact me if there are any questions.
 
Sincerely,
 
Elaine Hernandez, PhD
Chair, District 5930 Rotary Peace Fellowship Program
