[GlobalHealth] Reminder: Leland Hunger Fellowship applications due Dec 1

[Daren Wade]

Reminder: applications for the Mickey Leland International Hunger Fellowship program class of 2009-2011 are due December 1, 2008.

Sponsored by the Congressional Hunger Center, fellows spend one year in a field placement with a  host organization, and then a second year working on policy, usually in the U.S. office of the same organization.  Placements are available with organizations working in Africa, Asia and Latin America, and candidates must apply for a specific host organization and site.  Fellows receive a monthly stipend, health insurance, housing subsidy, and transportation and travel funds.

Health Alliance International, affiliated with the University of Washington’s Department of Global Health, is one of the host organization options for 2009-2011 (first year placement would be in Bouaké, Côte d’Ivoire).
