Can AP ensure professional services by working through graduate students who are deployed for limited periods of time?
We recruit Peace Fellows who are mature and have experience working abroad, often with the Peace Corps. We have also found that young professionals in their mid to late twenties are well suited to the challenge of working with community-based groups. They thrive on informality, but set goals. They are familiar with information technology. They cost their hosts nothing. What they don’t know can be taught at training – the rest will be a test of character and an ability to improvise. We feel that such volunteers could, potentially, be a huge asset for human rights.
