Fellowships through Carolina for Kibera provide opportunities for students to gain hands-on experience learning about global issues in a real world setting. Fellows are invited to collaborate with our Kibera staff as well as design and implement their own projects at a grassroots level.  We provide a range of services and programming across our initiatives.

Our James and Florence Peacock Fellowship is open to both undergraduate and graduate students at UNC-Chapel Hill. Two students are typically selected each year for the fellowship program. Students receive a stipend to cover airfare and living expenses. The other half of the fellowship will be earmarked for the volunteer project with CFK.
