The Carnegie African Diaspora Fellowship Program (CADFP)—funded by the 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.

CADFP Diaspora Fellows visit host institutions in Africa, where they engage with Host Fellows in a range of educational activities in their field of specialization, including curriculum co-development/revision, collaborative research, and training/mentoring of graduate students and early-career faculty. Since its launch in 2013, CADFP has awarded more than 650 fellowships at over 180 universities across ten African countries.
