Eligibility

GPODS is made for students and professionals who are at a Watershed Threshold in their academic or professional lives. The Watershed Threshold would signify a significant moment at which the professional would seek to transit into bigger roles in her/his career or scholarly pursuits. This would mean an effort which is catalyzed by GPODS, to delve deeper into areas of their respective interests or expertise by dedicating time and energy towards multi-disciplinary learning to hone their skills – all while developing an intra and inter-peer network of global leaders.

• May work full time or part-time, but must commit to completing the 3-month program, starting from June 2021 till end August 2021;

• Be open to working in or studying sectors outside their comfort zone;

• Basic knowledge of English language is required.

An important thing to note is that Global Fellows are valued for their passion to bring about a positive change globally, and not their age, nationality, gender, or background.
