The Obama Foundation Fellows will
be a diverse set of community-minded rising stars – organizers, inventors,
artists, entrepreneurs, journalists, and more– who are altering the civic
engagement landscape. By engaging their fellow citizens to work together in new
and meaningful ways, Obama Foundation Fellows will model how any individual can
become an active citizen in their community.
The inaugural class of 20 Fellows
will be integral to shaping the program and the
community of Fellows for future
years. For this first class, we’re seeking participants who are especially
excited about helping us design, test, and refine the Fellowship.
WORTH
- Guidance in developing a personalized Fellowship roadmap to help you
get the most out of the program
- Ongoing skill-building and training courses tailored to your
particular needs
- Individual coaching and mentoring to help you move your work forward
- Participation in a global cohort of leaders poised to change the
civic engagement landscape
- Exposure to opportunities provided by other Foundation programming,
such as mentorship roles and speaking engagements
- Participation in four gatherings (including economy airfare
to/from the event, lodging, and all meals during the events)
- For the inaugural class – the opportunity to shape the Fellowship
program for future years
ELIGIBILITY
Civic innovators
- They are looking for individuals who are working to solve important
public problems in creative and powerful ways.
Discipline diverse
- This fellowship is for organizers, inventors, artists,
entrepreneurs, journalists, and more. It is for those working within
systems like governments or businesses, as well as those working outside
of formal institutions.
At a tipping point in their work
- Successful applicants have already demonstrated meaningful impact in
their communities, gaining recognition among their peers for their
contributions. Now, they stand at a breakthrough moment in their careers.
- They’re poised to use the Fellowship to significantly advance their
work, perhaps by launching new platforms, expanding to broader audiences,
or taking their work to a national or global stage.
- If you’ve already gained global recognition for your work or if your
civic innovation work has just begun, you may not be the ideal candidate
for this program.
