Carr Center for Human Rights Policy Fellows Program
The Carr Center is a research, teaching, and training institution at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government that critically examines the policies and actions of governments, international organizations, nongovernmental organizations, and other actors that affect the realization of human rights around the world.
The Center's Fellows Program brings together a diverse group of human rights practitioners and scholars to spend ten months (September-June) at the Center, advancing their own professional development by completing work in progress, bridging into new fields, or pausing for reflection or consolidation in a practitioner career. Fellows are provided with office space, computers with LAN and Internet connections, and access to Harvard University libraries and other facilities.
We expect that successful applicants will have either 5 years of experience in human rights work, or a recently completed Ph.D., J.D. (or equivalent), or 8 to 10 years of professional experience in a relevant area.
While the Center welcomes project proposals on any human rights-related topic, we have a particular interest in: the use of force and human rights, building domestic constituencies for human rights at home and abroad, genocide prevention, the global HIV/AIDS crisis, gender and security, corporate social responsibility, and capacity development among human rights non-governmental organizations.
