The Dui Hua Fellowship is an opportunity for emerging China-focused nonprofit professionals seeking to grow their skills in the human rights space. Dui Hua’s work rests on the premise that positive change is realized through constructive relationships and exchange, and the Fellows Program is an extension of that core belief.

Fellows work closely with Dui Hua staff to contribute to and expand on Dui Hua’s programs and operations by working on projects that enhance its four focus areas: political and religious prisoners, juvenile justice, women in prison, and issues in criminal justice. Fellows use their outreach, organizational, and project management skills to increase the effectiveness of the foundation’s initiatives while develop their skills and understanding of human rights issues.

Dui Hua’s first Fellow was recruited in the autumn of 2020 to support the International Symposium on Girls in Conflict with the Law, which engaged participants from around the world. Twelve webinars were held from October 2020 to March 2021, and a dedicated website GirlsJustice.org was launched on March 8, 2021. Dui Hua’s recent Fellow is currently conducting research on the history of US-China relations since the resumption of official relations in 1972.

The Fellows Program provides a stipend and allows candidates to work independently within the general guidelines of a specific project.
