Call for Applications: for Charles E. Scheidt Faculty Fellows in Atrocity Prevention Program, Application Deadline- 1 August 2026
Every academic discipline has something to contribute to the protection of human rights and the prevention of large-scale, identity-based violence. The Institute for Genocide and Mass Atrocity Prevention (I-GMAP) at Binghamton University has pioneered the Charles E. Scheidt Faculty Fellows in Atrocity Prevention program to engage faculty in a guided process of learning and exploration of the potential for their own disciplines to contribute to atrocity prevention. Fellows learn from I-GMAP’s faculty, staff and practitioner visitors and alongside faculty from a wide range of disciplines both within their cohort and from previous cohorts. The program culminates with each faculty member modifying at least one of their own courses to integrate an atrocity prevention lens through innovative and engaged pedagogical approaches.
The upcoming program runs from September 2026 through May 2027 (with a break during December and January), primarily in an online and asynchronous format, with synchronous meetings at the start and finish of the program.
