The International Peace Research Association Foundation invites applications for the Dorothy Marchus Senesh Fellowship in Peace and Development Studies for Women from countries in the Global South. Dorothy Senesh was a long-time activist for international peace and justice.

The IPRA Foundation was founded in 1990 as a non-profit, tax-exempt organization. The Foundation's purpose is to promote peace research and scholarship throughout the world.

Award Details

Every other year (beginning in 1990) two women receive school expenses in the amount of $ 5,000 per year for two years.

Eligibility Criteria

The Dorothy Senesh Fellowship is available to women from countries in the Global South who have completed a Bachelor's degree, who have been accepted into a graduate program, and whose graduate work is to be focused on issues related to the goals of the IPRA Foundation. Funds will only be dispersed when the selected candidate is admitted into a graduate program. Awards are considered based on need; therefore, students with substantial funding sources are less likely to be considered for the award.
