New Projects Will Be Available January 26, 2003
Indicorps aims to offer a diverse set of experiences in different disciplines to potential fellows. Applicants are required to apply to specific project(s); they must write separate essays for each project that sparks their interest - applications will be evaluated both by Indicorps and the administrators of the projects in India.
Projects are designed to be locally sustainable after the fellowship period. Certain projects are long-term collaborations, and allow fellows to apply for fellowship extensions or will be continued by future Indicorps fellows.
All projects are extensively researched, visited, and jointly administered by Indicorps and participating Indian non-profit organizations. Indicorps provides the support structure for fellows and plays a very active role in the management of projects and continuous evaluation of fellows, organizations, and project success.
Indicorps welcomes suggestions for potential projects or partner organizations in India. If you have information that you think might be useful, please contact us or email: projects@indicorps.org
