The One Health Fellowship program is a bilateral, global exchange initiative, designed to promote mutual understanding, enhance One Health leadership and professional skills, and build lasting and sustainable partnerships between the fellows, Rwandan institutions, and partners in the United States (US). The One Health Fellowship program creates a network of One Health leaders who can use their professional knowledge to minimize public health threats in their countries and communities through targeted One Health leadership training, deliberately crafted fellowship placements, and creation of strategic and sustainable partnerships.
The six-week Fellowship begins with active participation in the One Health Leadership and Advocacy workshop at Cummings School. Cummings Host International will welcome fellows into the Tufts community and will facilitate meaningful cross-cultural experiences.
The One Health Fellowship program will launch recent graduates and young One Health leaders on career paths by giving them a broader set of working experience and skills. Recent graduates, as well as junior faculty from University of Global Health Equity and University of Rwanda, will be selected to participate in the One Health Fellowship program. Young leaders, who play vital roles in strengthening their communities by building resiliency in the face of public health threats, are encouraged to apply. One Health fellows will be selected from a range of disciplines including medicine, veterinary medicine, social and environmental sciences, nursing, policy, customs, gender and women’s empowerment, media, psychosocial health, and community organization.
The fellowship will take place from mid-May 2019 to the end of June 2020. The six One Health fellows selected to participate will spend a period of six weeks in the US, which includes a four-week individually tailored placement at a US-based organization.
