Westpac Bicentennial Foundation is calling social innovators to apply for their 2018 Social Change Fellowship. The Westpac Social Change Fellowship supports the development of people from any sector with the drive to create better lives for all Australians. Fellowships of up to $50,000 will be awarded to individuals who have the vision and commitment to deliver an initiative that will improve the wellbeing of Australians.

The Fellowship is designed to give recipients time and space to develop the skills, knowledge and networks needed to accelerate their growth as a social innovator. This may involve travel study tours, work experience, research or building stronger connections that will directly enhance their ability to lead positive social change. Successful recipients will also become valued members of the Westpac 100 Scholars Network.

  • Reasonable personal expenses;
  • Costs for relief in current employment (depending on need).

  • You are over the age of 18;

  • You have a keen desire to share ideas with others, to be challenged, to be inspired.
