The UNA-USA Fellowship Initiative

Return to Fellowship Search

The United Nations Association of the United States of America (UNA-USA) Fellowship Initiative is a first-of-its-kind scholarship that provides stipends and networking opportunities for prospective UN interns.

This initiative offers stipends for internships across the globe so that you can keep making the world a better place. UNA-USA is committed to reflecting the rich diversity of the global audiences they serve, especially excited to welcome individuals from underrepresented communities from HBCUs, HSIs, TCUs, and colleges for the deaf and hard of hearing.

Internships for four months – hybrid, in-person, part-time, or full-time – are eligible to receive up to $13,000. These funds apply to any UN internship worldwide!

You do not need to have secured an internship with the UN before attending this session. You may apply for the fellowship while serving as an intern or during your UN internship application process. While there is no hard deadline, students are encouraged to apply as soon as they are awarded an acceptance letter!
