Projects for Peace Alumni Award (graduates)

Projects for Peace is a global program that partners with educational institutions to identify and support young peacebuilders and changemakers. Each year, the Projects for Peace Alumni Award recognizes a single past Projects for Peace grantee, with a focus on individuals who have demonstrated innovation and commitment in building peace and transforming conflict throughout their career. As opposed to a grant for a project, this award recognizes past achievements and supports the future endeavors of the recipient. Campus application deadline typically in January.
“In order to make changes in laws and policies, we need to have data on our side. We need to be able to make a case that shows a causal link between misinformation online and the erosion of democracy.”
