The annual IIE Centennial Fellowship program recognizes IIE's 100th anniversary and its affiliation with the Fulbright Program. The IIE Centennial Fellowship aims to strengthen Fulbright as a lifetime experience and honor Fulbright alums whose work exemplifies the core ideals of the program—mutual understanding, leadership, solving global problems, and having an impact on the world.
In the 2023 application cycle, 4 Fulbright alumni will be selected as IIE Centennial Fellows to receive awards of up to $25,000 for ongoing or planned projects that actively address Climate Change at the global, regional and/or local level. These projects may range in approach but must be action-oriented and solutions-focused. Successful project proposals will solve a specific problem related to climate change and demonstrate tangible outputs and outcomes.
Additionally, 1 Fulbright alumni will be selected to receive the IIE New Leader Award, which recognizes alumni who have completed their Fulbright program in the past 5 years (2022 – 2018). The proposed project must already be ongoing and match the above Climate Change theme. The selected New Leader will receive an award of up to $15,000.
