Fellowship Journey

UDAIPUR - DUNGARPUR

What Gandhi Fellowship is all about?

The Gandhi Fellowship Program is a two-year Fellowship program for talented youngsters from India's top colleges

The program is rooted in the belief that as a nation it is important to develop a cadre of leaders exposed to the complexities of bringing change in social and public systems. The Gandhi Fellowship Program is designed to provide youth with the opportunity for personal transformation through self-discovery and thereby, contribute to the causes surrounding them. It creates a legitimate space for young people to engage with social issues in a real manner and devote their energies to bring about school change through their tenure and effectively lead complex public systems in the future.

Workshops and Boot-camps for Leadership Development

A busy calendar of expert-led sessions to develop domain skills and professional competencies for successful social change careers. You will find yourselves in a vibrant reflective space where short-burst modules will redefine your life path, decisions and career possibilities. For starters, three kinds of modules that address:

1. Specific professional skills,
2. Leadership issues, and
3. Group reflection processes.

Coaching and Mentoring

A multi-disciplinary panel of distinguished people is being created to act as Executive Coaches to deliver one-on-one guidance and counseling to enhance domain understanding and develop both generic and specific professional skills. They will extend support in honing an alumni's goals as well reaching them to achieve both professional and personal growth.

Leadership Curriculum

A Reading and Reflection Process for building perspective, understanding Political Economy, Social Innovation, Business Processes, Trends, Technology and, most important, developing Self Awareness. This will be done through carefully selected readings of case studies and extracts from various sources.

Servicing the 'Self'

Servicing the 'Self', Managing failure, partner/spousal issues, burnout: these are the inevitable components of a pursuit driven by passion. We are looking to get on board professional counselors and therapists to help see these phases as milestones, not millstones.
