Atlas Corps Fellowship
Apply for the Atlas Corps Fellowship: Palestinian Initiative
Priority Deadline: EXTENDED TO November 30th to be considered for 2020 Fellowships
Atlas Corps seeks emerging rising leaders from Palestine to apply for Fellowships in the U.S. as part of the Palestinian Initiative. This Fellowship is partially funded by the U.S. Department of State. Fellows will promote social change by serving for 12-18 months in leading corporations, private companies, b-corps, and/or organizations that promote entrepreneurship, and social sector ventures. Fellows will increase their social sector acumen through hands-on experience while developing invaluable person-to-person connections to learn effective organizational practices that can be applied in their home region. This Fellowship includes a living stipend to cover basic expenses (food, local transportation, and shared housing) and health insurance. The priority deadline has been extended to November 30th to be considered for opportunities beginning in April 2020 or later, but applications are accepted year-round, and we strongly encourage early applications.
