Sunday July 11th 2010 - Peace fellow Becky Palmstrong.


Well if you have had a day of wondering what to do and then decided to sit and do whatever...and then at the end of it wondered if you wasted the day...go look at what Becky Palmstrong has been doing, an amazing young woman who just blows me away...this is why Peace Scholars are worth it..and why we are so proud of Becky and why we sponsored her in our District...Keep blowing us sway Becky!

What is the Rotary World Peace Fellowship?

The Rotary World Peace Fellowship offers individuals committed to peace and cooperation the opportunity to pursue a master’s level degree in conflict resolution, peace studies and international relations at one of the seven Rotary Centers for International Studies located in leading universities around the world. The Berkeley Rotary Center for International Studies in Peace and Conflict Resolution is one of the seven centers funded by Rotary International. Up to ten Rotary World Peace Fellows join the Center each fall to study for two years in a wide range of disciplines emphasizing issues of peace, human rights, conflict resolution and international studies.
