Diversity Advocate Grant

Diversity Advocate Grant

Deadline: Saturday, October 1, 2023

Diversity is a core value of CAPA: The Global Education Network. It is reflected in the diversity of our global city locations and as a critical learning and development outcome that engages all our students. We are committed to increasing student diversity and providing all participants a framework to explore, challenge, and redefine their identities in distinct ways.

CAPA’s Diversity Advocates Scholarship Program (DAP) is an extension of this philosophy and supports undergraduate students focused on social justice, access, inclusion, or diversity who wish to continue this focus abroad. Advocates receive a grant in the amount of $1,000 on a semester-length program with CAPA to pursue diversity projects or research during their learning abroad experience.

DAP Scholars will collaborate with others and build upon their professional and personal development. They will also have the opportunity to engage in discussion groups and will be provided with tools to help them continue their advocacy efforts post-program.

Lastly, DAP scholars will implement a project informed by their understanding of diversity in a local context, which will serve as their “capstone project” while abroad.

Applying for the Diversity Advocate Grant:

To be eligible, you must be a committed and engaged individual with a track record of successful advocacy for diversity within your communities. You will effectively demonstrate an understanding of - and obligation to - influence your own community from your own experience abroad.

Advocates are awarded a grant in the amount of $1,000 for semester programs only.

The Center for a New American Security (CNAS)

The Center for a New American Security (CNAS) established its flagship internship and mentoring program in honor of Dr. Joseph S. Nye, Jr., who has devoted his career to the preparation and mentoring of generations of Americans and global strategists.

CNAS offers full-time (40 hrs/week) internships for a six-month term. Interns are given a $75 per month transportation stipend and an additional stipend of $1,900 per month intended to help cover daily expenses incurred during the internship. As of September 2021, CNAS personnel have resumed working in our Washington, DC office full-time. Therefore, they are now only accepting applicants who can relocate or are already located in the Washington, DC area.

Development:

Target start date: January 2023

The Development team works in support of the Center and its mission to build and maintain diverse donor portfolios, steward current partners, and prospect potential funders of the organization. The Joseph S. Nye, Jr. Development Intern works directly with members of the Development team to assist with ad hoc projects related to the Center’s fundraising portfolios (individual, corporations, government, and foundations); conduct development and fundraising-related research and assemble briefing memos related to development prospects and opportunities; manage data input in the Center’s CRM (Salesforce); support event planning and execution; provide assistance to research programs with database and marketing tool questions; and support email marketing efforts, including tracking metrics, using the Center's marketing software.

The ideal candidate possesses an appreciation and willingness to work in a fast-paced environment, excellent verbal and communications skills, the ability to prioritize multiple tasks from several stakeholders at once, exceptional professionalism and discretion, and a willingness to learn on their feet. Additionally, the ideal candidate will be a highly motivated self-starter, detail oriented, and have a track record of high-quality research and organizational management skills. Candidates with a background and interest in fundraising and nonprofit management are strongly preferred.

Applicants should familiarize themselves with the department's work through the descriptions and information available on the CNAS website. Your cover letter should, in addition to outlining your qualifications, explain why it interests you. Interns work closely with CNAS staff and are given considerable responsibility.
