The HRE USA Edmonds Fellowship Committee is seeking proposals for 2023 fellowship projects. This year, the Committee has selected a theme, Protecting Democracy, Promoting Human Rights, to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and recognize the necessity of protecting a democratic and civil society. The theme this year seeks timely and topical fellowship proposals that demonstrate human rights education (HRE) as essential for participation in an inclusive, democratic society. The committee welcomes diverse ideas for fellowship projects and offers suggestions for proposals to address areas such as:
- increasing youth participation in human rights education,
- training and other opportunities to engage in HRE and/or civic action,
- improving, creating, or compiling HRE resources,
- implementing a collaborative project(s) among HRE USA members and other organizational partners,
- increasing capacity to further the mission, guiding principles and values, and priorities of HRE USA.
Fellows will commit 100 hours over roughly 10 weeks to address the topic identified in your proposal. The Committee is exploring summer and fall fellowship opportunities, with dates to be determined. With this year’s theme in mind, as well as the goals and priorities of HRE USA, we invite you to submit your Edmonds Fellowship Project Proposal using the application form by February 10, 2023 to kristi@hreusa.org.
The approved Edmonds Fellowship projects and application process will be online March 1st. The fellowship submission deadline will be March 24, 2023.
