In November 2000, the Ford Foundation launched the International Fellowships Program (IFP), providing US$280 million over the next 10 years for post-baccalaureate students in selected countries, including some in Africa. The IFP will award 350 fellowships annually, for up to three years of master s or doctoral study at universities worldwide. Fellows will be selected on the basis of their leadership potential, academic excellence and commitment to development; study will be in fields that further the foundation s goals, such as reducing poverty and promoting international cooperation. For the ACP community, the IFP is starting in Nigeria, Senegal and Ghana. During 2001-2002 the programme will expand to other countries and regions.
