Humanity in Action Summer Fellowship for Undergraduate and Class of 2010 and 2011 Graduates

Humanity in Action (HIA) is now accepting applications for our 2012 Fellowship Programs in Europe from talented college students and recent college graduates.

HIA invites applications from college students and recent graduates who are intellectually gifted, mature, independent and passionate about human rights. Current sophomores, juniors, and seniors and graduates from the classes of 2010 and 2011 are eligible to apply.


The HIA Fellowship brings together international groups of Fellows to study minority rights and produce research exploring how and why individuals and societies, past and present, have resisted intolerance and protected democratic values. Separate programs will take place for five weeks in Amsterdam, Berlin, Copenhagen, Lyon, and Warsaw.

Applications are due on January 9, 2012.

Intensive and demanding, the HIA Fellowship features daily lectures and discussions with renowned academics, journalists, politicians, and activists, as well as site visits to government agencies, non-profit organizations, museums and memorials. Participation requires a great deal of intellectual curiosity and stamina, as well as the ability to work effectively in international teams.

After the program, Fellows participate in the global alumni network of HIA Senior Fellows and can take advantage of special professional fellowship opportunities such as internship programs in the U.S. Congress and European Parliament.

We hope you will share this email widely with students and recent graduates whom you think would benefit from this opportunity. Students of all academic disciplines, interests, and backgrounds are encouraged to apply.

If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact our staff at

Cordially,
Dr. Judith S. Goldstein
