I would like to share a kind reminder that the deadline to apply for the 2017 Humanity in Action Fellowship programs is quickly approaching. Please share this call for applications with your students and encourage them to use their holiday break to work on their applications and get their references in.
 
The Humanity in Action Fellowship is an intensive four-week academic program for university students and recent graduates interested in human rights issues, diversity and active citizenship. In 2017, the Fellowship programs will take place in Amsterdam, Atlanta, Berlin, Copenhagen, Sarajevo and Warsaw. The program is open to American and non-US citizens studying at an accredited, four-year undergraduate college in the United States. We are actively looking for students from diverse fields. Fellows in the past have come from a spectrum of academic and professional fields including government, business, STEM, law and civil society.
 
Humanity in Action covers the costs of participation and accommodation during the fellowship programs. All Fellows are responsible for financing the cost of roundtrip airfare from the United States to their program city; however, Humanity in Action will cover this cost for Fellows with documented need. While there is a $40 application fee to apply, we will provide fee waivers for students that demonstrate financial need. For more information about how to apply for a fee waiver, please encourage your students to contact us at admissions@humanityinaction.org. 
 
Please help us spread the word by sharing this opportunity with your students. Please don't hesitate to circulate the email below. I have also attached several leaflets about the program for print distribution.

The European Programs

In 2017, the Humanity in Action Fellowship programs will take place in Amsterdam, Berlin, Copenhagen, Sarajevo and Warsaw. Intensive and demanding, the Humanity in Action Fellowship brings together international groups of college students and recent graduates to explore national histories of injustice and resistance—including the political foundations of racial hierarchies, Antisemitism, Islamophobia and colonial domination—as they affect different minority groups today.

The American Program

In 2015, Humanity in Action and The National Center for Civil and Human Rights launched the John Lewis Fellowship in Atlanta, Georgia. The John Lewis Fellowship honors U.S. Representative John Lewis, an icon of the Civil Rights Movement. In its first two years, the program explored the history of the Civil Rights Movement, diversity and minority rights in Atlanta. In its third year, the John Lewis Fellowship is expanding to focus on restorative justice in Atlanta. 

The four-week inquiry and resulting blueprint for restorative justice will involve a multidisciplinary approach. Fellows, speakers and staff will produce a blueprint – "An Appeal for Human Rights and Restorative Justice" for the city. They will explore keys issues and subjects including education, health, the law, urban and residential planning, police practices, local and state government, religious institutions, and the arts. 

Humanity in Action is proud to partner with The National Center for Civil and Human Rights, Inc., to develop thisimportant program and is deeply grateful to the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation for its generous support provided through The Center.

Upon successful completion of these programs, Fellows will join the global network of over 1,600 Humanity in Action Senior Fellows.
