Exchange Programs
Ford Foundation International Fellowships
Program (IFP): Ramallah
Introduction
THE International
Fellowships Program (IFP), which AMIDEAST
administers in Egypt and Palestine, provides
a select number of exceptional students
with the financial support necessary to
pursue up to three years of graduate study
at any college or university in the world.
The program  attracts
students from diverse backgrounds but is
targeted toward individuals from communities
that routinely lack access to higher education.
IFP seeks to instill within these future
leaders the skills and knowledge needed
to improve social and economic conditions
within their communities. In addition to
providing financial assistance for travel,
living expenses and tuition, IFP also offers
preliminary short-term training including
language instruction, workshops on research
skills, and computer training.
For more information on the International Fellowship
Program, including profiles of past and current
fellows, visit the IFP
Web site.
