- Take online courses, complemented by a one-month site residential every term (Term I - India, Term II - Kenya, Term III - Haiti, Term IV - USA)
- Gain research skills through a two-year applied practicum that answers a question of local priority with support from a personal mentor
- Learn from global peers and outstanding examples of community-led peace building and conservation
Future Generations Graduate School offers its peacebuilding Master's concentration in partnership with the U.S. Institute of Peace.
