In the last 13 years, we have had 230 fellows from varied academic and professional backgrounds who have worked across the country with a total of 50 partner organizations in high impact social innovation projects.
Fellowship Design:
India Fellow has the following four major aspects:
1] Working with Communities: India Fellows spend most of their time (16 months) working at grassroots with leading social organizations committed to bring positive change. This can be anywhere across the country. The fellow is expected to live in their work area, typically a rural or a peri-urban setup, and understand the complexities at that level.
2] Training: India Fellow has 2 months of residential training, spread across the duration of 18 months. This is divided into 4 parts of 15 days each throughout the journey. The India Fellow pedagogy is unique; it engages a strong collective of various leaders, academicians, social scientists and practitioners. Trainings are in locations like Udaipur, Delhi, Bhuj, Himalayan belt, Sundarbans amongst others.
3] Constant engagement: Throughout the duration, fellows document their observations, experiences and insights; engage in intense blended learning modules, group online courses for certification and fundraising to build a holistic understanding of development and gain crucial skill sets.
4] Mentor-ship: Every fellow is exposed to a pool of mentors, who are experts with deep experience in their domain. Along with that, the fellowship ecosystem consists of facilitators, alumni and experienced professionals who are available to interact with the fellows to enrich their experience.
