Craig Cohen was a Hart Fellow in Rwanda and Malawi with Save the Children-US from
1996-97 working with child-headed households, and from 1997-98 completed a second
Hart Fellowship with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees in Geneva,
Switzerland. After completing his fellowships, Craig published his writing on
child-headed households in Rwanda (No Home Without Foundation) and adolescent
refugees in Azerbaijan (Looking Toward Home) through the Women's Commission for
Refugee Women and Children at the International Rescue Committee.
Craig graduated from Duke in 1996. As an undergraduate, Craig participated
in the Hart Leadership Program's Refugee Action Project (forerunner of HLP's
Service Opportunities in Leadership program) in the former-Yugoslavia. From
1998-99, Craig served as a Visiting Lecturer at the Sanford Institute of
Public Policy and as Hart Fellows Program Coordinator. In 2004, Craig finished
work for his Master's degree at the Fletcher School of Law & Diplomacy at Tufts
University. In his thesis, "Trusting Coexistence? Lessons from Refugee Return
and Reintegration in Bosnia and Rwanda" he critiques international donor efforts
to coerce people of different ethnic groups to live together after war as part of
donors' post-conflict peace-building strategy, part of which was published in the
international development journal, Praxis.
