Sponsored by the Davis Foundation at Middlebury College Scholars Program, Projects for Peace allows WPI students to complete grassroots projects – anywhere in the world – to promote peace and build understanding.

For the summer of 2025, undergraduate students from WPI are encouraged to use their creativity to design projects and employ innovative techniques for engaging project participants in ways that focus on conflict resolution, reconciliation, building understanding and breaking down barriers which cause conflict, and finding solutions for resolving conflict and maintaining peace. Pathways to peace can be conceived quite broadly, to include initiatives related to environment, education, or social services.

Projects will be selected for funding at $10,000 each.

Note: Communication between students writing proposals for this program and the Projects for Peace office at Middlebury is prohibited.  Please contact the on-campus Projects for Peace Liaison, Professor Stephen McCauley (mccauley@wpi.edu), with all questions.
