What technical skills and experience should an AP Peace Fellow have?
While specific fellowships have different requirements, in general fellows are expected to have an understanding of issues relating to human rights, social justice, conflict, and development; excellent writing, editing, and research (especially Internet research) skills; at least one year of graduate-level study in a relevant field. Also, some ICT skills, with the ability and willingness to expand your skill-set, are a plus. Unless indicated otherwise, no knowledge of the host language is required but it’s always a bonus. (Our Latin America and Middle East Fellowships do have a language requirement).
