Ford Foundation Visiting Fellowship - The Ford Foundation International Fellowship Program (IFP) provides opportunities for advanced study to exceptional individuals who will use this education to become leaders in their respective fields, furthering development in their own countries and greater economic and social justice worldwide.

The programme is especially designed to support candidates from social groups that have been marginalised and lack systematic access to higher education, such as women, scheduled castes, scheduled tribes, other backward classes, physically disadvantaged and those with other kinds of socio-economic deprivation.

In Uganda AHEAD is honoured to administer this Ford Foundation- sponsored fellowship that provides opportunities for scholars who are also change agents committed to becoming leaders in their communities.

AHEAD strongly supports the focus on talented individuals who have traditionally had limited access to higher education. Fellows are offered a fully paid graduate program as they earn their Masters or PhD degrees.
