Deadline: April 15, 2024
Applications are open for the Vital Voices Global Fellowship 2024. The Vital Voices Global Fellowship brings together women leaders from across sectors to build skills and capacity, foster a collaborative network, and exchange ideas. In addition to learning successful leadership practices both from experts and each other, in our inaugural year, they are offering programming across two pillars – social entrepreneurship and political leadership.
Fellows will engage in focused learning on sector-specific skills and knowledge and with changemakers relevant to their industries. Through the fellowship, Vital Voices also aims to create opportunities for cross-issue collaboration and harness the collective creative potential of women leaders working on critical challenges disproportionately affecting women and girls.
Through participating in the Vital Voices Global Fellowship, Fellows will:
- Gain access to a cohort of diverse women leaders within their own pillar and across sectors, similarly, committed to making a positive impact in their communities;
- Build leadership and confidence through the Vital Voices Leadership Journey (VVLJ), which includes building personal narrative and storytelling skills;
- Receive an invitation to attend an in-person convening in Washington, DC;
- Develop new skills and tools to increase their capacity;
- Receive a certificate of achievement upon completing the fellowship;
- Join the Vital Voices global network of more than 20,000 women leaders from around the world.
Costs
- All costs associated with the program are fully covered by Vital Voices, including travel, lodging, and meals for the in-person convening.
