Deadline: Ongoing Opportunity
Do you feel compelled to shape the future? Are you interested in personal and professional growth? Do you feel drawn to leadership roles? If yes, then apply for Jewish Changemakers Fellowship.
Changemakers is an online leadership development experience designed to expand your career options, your network, and most importantly, your desire and ability to affect positive change in your community and the world at large.
The Jewish Changemakers Fellowship offers three-weeks of online leadership development over the summer for current and aspiring Jewish leaders, between the ages of 20-24. Those who complete the summer requirements (7-10 hours/week) earn a $350 stipend. Changemakers accepts candidates from North America and around the world and values Jewish diversity in the selection process.
Themes
Changemakers covers three key themes:
- Week 1: Professional Development – What do I need to know about myself to succeed professionally? What’s my personal story and mission?
- Week 2: Global Jewish Community – Jews live all around the world. In some global locations, Jewish roots trace back 100’s or even 1000’s of years! What does it mean to be part of this global Jewish community? How do they engage with Jews who have cultural and historical perspectives different than yours? What does it mean to be Jewish in your ever-changing and diverse landscape?
- Week 3: Service & Advocacy – How can I contribute meaningfully and make change around the issues I care about most? How do I deepen my knowledge of societal challenges where I think my voice could make a real difference?
