作為促進世界和平及國際了解的眾多努力的一份子，國際扶輪將要在泰國首都曼谷的朱拉隆岡大學設立一個扶輪和平與衝突研究中心。預定在2006年7月在朱拉隆岡大學的新研究中心來實驗扶輪和平與衝突研究計劃，一個為期三個月的和平研究的特別課程，解決衝突及調解訓練，這些計劃之受訓對象涵蓋在政府部門、非政府組織及民間公司中、高級階層之經理人物。

As part of its ongoing effort to promote world peace and international understanding, Rotary International will establish a Rotary Center for Peace and Conflict Studies at Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok, Thailand. Beginning in July 2006, the new center at Chulalongkorn University will pilot the Rotary Peace and Conflict Studies program, a special three-month course in peace studies, conflict resolution and mediation training aimed at middle and upper-level managers in governments, non-governmental organizations, and private corporations.

這個扶輪和平與衝突研究計劃每期將接受30名額，其中30%保留給非泰國籍的外國獎學生。每年將舉辦兩期。全部課程將以英文授課，該計劃將從2006年7月開始，三年後將作評估。朱拉隆岡大學是泰國最古老的大學，它將提供其最擅長的國際關係、政治學及企業管理方面的師資以及客座教授和專家來作個案研究及實際訓練。

The Rotary Peace and Conflict Studies program will accept 30 fellows per session with about one third of the openings reserved for students from outside of Thailand. Sessions will be held twice each year. Offered in English, the program will begin in July 2006 and will be evaluated after three years. The oldest university in Thailand, Chulalongkorn will draw upon its faculty's strength in international relations, political science and business management, as well as guest lecturers and outside experts to provide case studies and practical training.

扶輪社可提名申請人至國際扶輪基金會的甄選委員會，它管理扶輪和平與衝突研究計劃及其他扶輪的教育運動，它是全世界國際間最大且有大學程度之學者的民間資金來源。

Rotary clubs may nominate applicants to a selection committee of The Rotary Foundation, which administers the Rotary Peace and Conflict Studies program and other popular educational initiatives of Rotary, the world's largest privately funded source of international, university-level scholarships.

每一學員之僱主將負擔為期三月課程之5,000美金的費用，這包含學費、食宿及教材費用。扶輪基金會負擔獎學員由其住家到曼谷之旅費。

Each fellow's employer will be expected to cover the US$5,000 cost of the three-month session, including tuition, room-and-board and educational materials. The Rotary Foundation will cover the expenses of roundtrip travel between the fellow's home and Bangkok.
