Herbert
Scoville Jr. Peace Fellowship
Deadline: October 15
The Herbert Scoville Jr. Peace Fellowship is a program that provides
college graduates the opportunity to work in Washington, DC, with a
public-interest organization focusing on arms control and international
security issues. It lasts from six to nine months and provides a stipend,
health insurance, and travel costs to Washington. Scoville Fellows may
undertake a variety of activities, including research, writing, and
organizing in support of the goals of their host organization and may
attend coalition meetings, policy briefings, and Congressional hearings.
They have written fact sheets, letters to the editor, magazine articles,
briefing books and reports; organized talks and conferences, and been
interviewed as experts by the media. Many former Scoville Fellows are
hired either by their host organization or another group dealing with
arms control or peace issues following their fellowships. There is no
application form; the application requirements are listed on the website,
as are links to the websites of the participating organizations and
information on the work of former Scoville Fellows.
