In the last 9 years, we have had 179 fellows from varied regional, educational and professional backgrounds
having worked across the country with a total of 70 partner organizations in rural and urban areas. Fellows
have been solving complex problems using frameworks in Project Management, Organizational
Development, Community Mobilization and Communication. Some of our partner organizations are WOTR,
Khamir, Centre For Social Justice and SEWA Bharat. We have been fortunate to be supported by ICICI, Tata
Trusts, Paul Hamlyn Foundation, Info Edge and WaterAid.
************************************************
Fellowship Design:
India Fellow has the following four major aspects:
1] Training and Workshops: The training focuses on development theory and practice, leadership skills,
program management, organizational development and innovative approaches like design thinking,
participatory rural appraisal and systems thinking.
2] Work Assignment with Host Organization: This can be anywhere across the country in any theme. The
fellow will be living in these communities in a rural or an urban setup, and working closely with the
organization’s team to understand the social framework and development approach.
3] Constant engagement: Throughout the year, fellows document their observations, experiences and
insights; engage in regular virtual learning modules, online courses and fundraising to build a holistic
understanding of the sector and gain crucial skill sets.
4] Mentor-ship: Every fellow is exposed to a pool of mentors, who are experts with huge experience in their
domain. Along with that, the fellowship ecosystem consists of trainers, alumni, personnel from various
organizations and program team to enrich fellows’ experiences as friends and coaches.
