The Frederick Douglass Global Fellowship was founded in 2017 by the Council for International Educational Exchange (CIEE), the nation’s oldest and largest student exchange organization. Participants explore strategies for promoting social justice, resolving conflict, and advancing peace with a cohort of other student leaders who aspire to make a difference in the world. All program fees are covered, as well as round trip airfare.
This year’s cohort is once again co-sponsored by Ireland’s Department of Foreign Affairs, to commemorate the anniversary of Douglass’s first journey abroad to Ireland. Participants will be based in Dublin and visit other cities where Douglass campaigned against slavery, while meeting with government leaders and social justice activists.
Join CIEE for an Information Session on this fully-funded summer study abroad program to discuss the requirements, application process and additional details about the program. It's a great opportunity to ask questions and learn more about this transformational program.
CIEE will also share information on the Frederick Douglass Scholars Grant, a $1,500 grant available to all eligible applicants that complete their app before the February 14th deadline. All students interested in studying abroad must also attend a Group Advising Session and meet with a Study Abroad Advisor before applying to a program.
