The Ford Foundation International Fellowships Program (IFP) provides opportunities for advanced study to exceptional individuals who will use this education to become leaders in their respective fields, furthering development in their own countries and greater economic and social justice worldwide. To ensure that Fellows are drawn from diverse backgrounds, IFP will actively recruit candidates from social groups and communities that lack systematic access to higher education. General Guidelines top of page The International Fellowships Program provides support for up to three years of formal graduate-level study. Fellows will be selected from countries in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, Latin America and Russia, where the Ford Foundation maintains active overseas programs. U.S. nationals are not eligible, although Fellows may study in the United States. Fellows are chosen on the basis of their leadership potential and commitment to community or national service, as well as for academic excellence. Fellows may enroll in masters or doctoral programs and may pursue any academic discipline or field of study that is consistent with the interests and goals of the Ford Foundation. The Foundation currently works in 15 fields to strengthen democratic values, reduce poverty and injustice, promote international cooperation and advance human achievement. Once selected, Fellows may enroll in universities in any part of the world, including their country of residence. The program will provide placement assistance to those Fellows not yet admitted to graduate school. IFP support will enable Fellows to undertake short-term language study and training in research and computer skills prior to graduate school enrollment. New Fellows attend orientation sessions, and current Fellows participate in learning and discussion activities designed to create information and exchange networks among IFP Fellows worldwide. The program also encourages Fellows to maintain contact with the program and remain current in their respective fields after completing the fellowship period. Because local con***ions vary widely among the IFP countries, applicants must carefully follow the specific application guidelines, including deadlines for the submission of applications, provided by the relevant IFP partner organization. Who Is Eligible? top of page Applicants must be resident nationals or residents of an eligible IFP country. In ad***ion, all IFP Fellows must: Demonstrate excellence in their undergraduate studies and hold a baccalaureate degree or its equivalent. Have experience in community service or development-related activities. Pursue a post-baccalaureate degree that will directly enhance their leadership capacity in an academic, policy, practical or artistic discipline or field corresponding to one or more of the Foundation's areas of endeavor. Present a plan specifying how they will apply their studies to social problems or issues in their own countries. Commit themselves to working on these issues following the fellowship period.

Ford Foundation staff and their family members may not serve on selection panels and are not eligible to apply for IFP awards.

Current IFP Partners: ASIA For Vietnam, please contact: Center for Educational Exchange with Vietnam (CEEVN) Suite #602 Sao Bac Building 5 Pho Da Tuong Hanoi, Vietnam The Ford Foundation International Fellowships Program would like to introduce a few of the IFP's first 96 award winners announced on June 21, 2001. The nine Fellows profiled here represent the breadth of the IFP program. They come from four continents, and often from remote areas of their own countries. Many are from groups with little access to higher education. They have demonstrated strong leadership skills, civic engagement, and strong academic records. Their commitment to bettering their communities and countries is clear. Each of the 96 inaugural IFP Fellows (listed separately on this site) shares these qualities. We know that they have already achieved much. And we are equally sure that they have a world of accomplishment ahead of them. Ho Thanh My Phong (Vietnam) Vo Thi Hoang Yen (Vietnam) Samuel Nikoi Kotei (Ghana) Naa Lamile Lamptey (Ghana) Madezha Cépeda Bazán (Peru) Marcelo Barrera Sepúlveda (Chile) Rosa Vallejos Yopán (Peru) Gulnaz Kalimullina (Russia) Anton Popov (Russia) Ho Thanh My Phong dressed in tra***ional Vietnamese attire. VIETNAM Ho Thanh My Phong Ho Thanh My Phong teaches English and is Deputy Director of the Office of Research and International Cooperation at An Giang University in Vietnam's Mekong Delta. She grew up in a rural village, where she recalls that the "continuous poverty due to lack of schooling, knowledge and skills proved in my mind the importance of school education." Ms. Phong earned a bachelor's degree from the University of Education in Ho Chi Minh City, and holds a master's degree in the teaching of English as second language. Now 37 years old, she has spent her professional career in teaching and educational administration, and is one of the very few women in managerial positions at her university. By pursuing a Ph.D. in educational planning and organization in the U.S., Ms. Phong intends to gain expertise to "help make An Giang University a center for scientific research and technology transfer in southern Vietnam." She also plans to pursue her own research on Vietnam's educational needs to help improve the quality of instruction at Vietnamese universities. "High quality training at universities will certainly produce well-trained specialists," she notes, "which is a very important factor for the social and economic development of the whole country." An advocate for disabled people in Ho Chi Minh City, Vo Thi Hoang Yen also enjoys singing at local events. VIETNAM Vo Thi Hoang Yen Vo Thi Hoang Yen plans to study community development. Her motivation comes from her personal experience of growing up in a large family in a subsistence farming area, and of suffering discrimination because of a disability. After receiving a job offer as an accountant, her would-be employer "turned me down on the first day of work when he discovered that I had a disability, visible but irrelevant to my working capacity." "It was the biggest shock of my life," recalls Ms. Yen, who survived a childhood battle with polio. "I realized that it was not my impairment but people's attitude towards my impairment that disabled me." Ms. Yen, who is 35 years old and holds bachelor degrees in both English teaching and agricultural economics, has worked to help change such attitudes. She is now vice president of the Association of Disabled Youth of Ho Chi Minh City. Further studies will expand her knowledge of other countries' laws on treatment of disabled people and how they are implemented, she explains. "My goal is to set up an office that can collect and disseminate information on disability-related issues... and carry out activities to raise the public awareness on disability issues," says Yen. "The disabled can fully integrate into society only when their needs and competencies are encouraged and recognized." E-mail: edex@netnam.org.vn Sayonara!!!
