We’re opening applications for the Global Cooperation Fellowship, a 4-month, remote program (March–June 2026) for young leaders aged 18–25 working on real-world challenges at the intersection of technology, AI, governance, climate, and global coordination.
The goal of the program is to help participants clarify project direction, navigate complex systems, and turn ideas into concrete next steps — with support from mentors, practitioners, and a strong peer environment.
What the program looks like
Over four months, fellows will participate in:
- Workshops with practitioners and researchers
- Structured mentorship
- Small international peer groups for accountability, feedback, and collaboration
The program is designed to be practical: participants should expect to leave with clearer strategy + an actionable plan for their project/career next step (and ideally a tangible output).
Timeline
- March–June 2026 (core curriculum runs until May)
