Applications are open for the 2027 Rotary Peace Fellowships — Help us find qualified candidates

Rotary is now accepting applications for Academic year 2027 Rotary Peace Fellowships!

As a humanitarian organization, promoting peace is a cornerstone of Rotary’s mission. By carrying out service projects, supporting peace fellowships and scholarships, and partnering with others, Rotary members take action to address the underlying causes of conflict, including poverty, discrimination, ethnic tension, lack of access to education, and unequal distribution of resources. One of the most effective ways we build peace is with our Rotary Peace Fellowships that train peace and development professionals to become effective catalysts for peace.

This year, The Rotary Foundation will award up to 50 fellowships for master’s degrees and up to 120 fellowships for the advanced professional development certificate program at partner universities.

We hope you will join us in promoting the peace fellowship opportunity across your network and communities to help us find the next global peace fellows. The application will be open until 15 May 2026, and interested candidates can apply directly through the Peace Centers application webpage or submit the referral form on the webpage and potential candidates will be contacted about how to apply.
