Harvard Impact Labs has selected Weatherhead Center Director Melani Cammett, Clarence Dillon Professor of International Affairs, for its 2026–2027 Impact Lab Development Fellowship—a nine-month program providing faculty with training, coaching, and $25,000 in seed funding to develop evidence-based, scalable solutions to social problems. Cammett will work with peacebuilding organizations, policymakers, and civil society leaders to apply her research on the role of local and national elites in reconciliation efforts, with the goal of developing strategies that encourage influential actors to promote cooperation and lasting improvements in intergroup relations in conflict-affected societies. The fellowship, announced September 30, 2026, is part of a University-wide initiative launched in 2025 to help Harvard faculty build research partnerships with public- and private-sector leaders.
