Qualifications, Requirements, and Responsibilities
Responsibilities
Applicants should use their creativity to design projects and employ innovative techniques for engaging project participants in ways that focus on conflict resolution, reconciliation, building understanding and breaking down barriers which cause conflict, and finding solutions for resolving conflict and maintaining peace.
Requirements
All undergraduate students, not just Davis UWC Scholars, at participating partner schools (including seniors who would complete their projects after graduation) are eligible.
Reporting
Reports to Kristen Cloutier. The Projects for Peace student proposer must be an undergrad at a participating partner school but is free to collaborate with other students of her/his choice. Those teams can be comprised of other students within their own school and/or students from other schools, even non-participating schools. When submitting a Projects for Peace proposal, the full team and their schools are to be listed but a partner school undergrad must be designated as the project lead and grant recipient.
