Ahonen-Jover Cardinal Quarter Fellowship for Innovation in Technology and Human Rights
The Ahonen-Jover Cardinal Quarter Fellowship for Innovation in Technology and Human Rights supports one student annually to design and propose an innovative project for advancing human rights in the United States or abroad in collaboration with a host organization and faculty mentor. Successful applicants will have a vision and entrepreneurial spirit and wish to create new strategies to advance human rights worldwide. Priority will be given to projects aimed at achieving equal rights for LGBTQ people and related sexual minorities, however, innovation in human rights is the first priority.
A “project” is defined as 1) student designed in consultation with a community partner, 2) student implemented, 3) provides a tangible deliverable to the community, and 4) is sustainable beyond the summer. In addition to the fellowship stipend, students working on projects may be awarded up to an additional $1000 for project-related expenses.
