Deadline: May 24, 2022

Applications are open for the Bridge Leadership Foundation Emerging Political Leaders Fellowship 2022. This is a fully-funded, non-partisan Political Leadership development project which nurtures and prepares young Nigerians for leadership at the local, regional and national level with a view to improving the quality of Nigeria’s leadership pool and the impact of its developmental interventions.

Over the course of a year, Fellows gain access to tailored content delivered by a carefully curated list of Politicians, Development Experts, Historians, Civil Society Leaders, Religious Figures, Advisors and Mentors. The Emerging Political Leaders Fellowships also gives Fellows the opportunity to demystify Nigerian politics by pairing them with credible past and serving Politicians through the program’s location-based Internship/shadow program. 

The residential Bootcamp serves as a melting pot for Fellows to network, immerse in Nigeria’s federal political ecosystem, meet key decision-makers and present their capstone projects to several panels of seasoned Politicians and Technocrats.

Benefits

  • Opportunity to be part of a pioneering program on political leadership on the African continent.
  • Access to a high-impact, 6-month political  leadership development training.
  • Opportunity to have access to, and be trained by a world-class Faculty.
  • One-on-one mentorship by credible and seasoned Nigerian Politicians currently serving at various levels across the country.
  • One-on-one/group meetings with, and access to influential Nigerian politicians curated across party lines.
  • Cost for local air travel, airport transfers, accommodation and feeding for the duration of the bootcamp will be covered (Nigerians in Diaspora will be responsible for their travel arrangements to Nigeria).
  • Opportunity to serve on subsequent programs as Facilitators, Program Ambassadors, Advisory Council members, and/or Mentors.
  • Increased visibility within Nigeria’s political space and amongst its most influential stakeholders.
  • Social media spotlights across The Bridge Leadership Foundation, Mentor and Faculty members handles/pages.

  • Who are active in mainstream politics in Nigeria;
  • With a proven track record of service within a community, region and in Nigeria;
