CADFP Alumni
The Carnegie African Diaspora Fellowship Program (CADFP)—funded by Carnegie Corporation of New York and administered by the Institute of International Education (IIE)—connects the African academic diaspora in the U.S. and Canada with higher education institutions in Africa. Since its launch in 2013, CADFP has awarded more than 750 fellowships across 10 African countries. These fellowships have helped form lasting partnerships and networks, achieving specific academic outcomes and enhancing the capacities of host institutions and collaborating faculty.
The CADFP has organized two Alumni Convenings. Learn more about each convening and access the convening summary reports at the links below.
The CADFP Alumni Steering Commitee is comprised of seven CADFP alumni based in Canada, Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, and the United States. Read their bios here. The CADFP Alumni Steering Commitee most recently worked together to strategize and plan the 2024 All-Alumni Virtual Convening, which took place on January 23-25, 2024.
The CADFP is made possible by a grant from Carnegie Corporation of New York.
