The Humanity in Action Fellowship explores Europe's unique history during the Second World War and the Holocaust along with present-day tensions related to minority groups in the continent. Key areas of inquiry include national identity, immigration, xenophobia, Islamophobia, anti-Semitism, racism, political extremism and discrimination of Roma -- all seen through the specific lens of each of the five countries.
Note: If you are a current W&M undergraduate and you are awarded an HIA Fellowship, the Charles Center will cover the cost of your airfare to Europe for the program.
