The Global Fellowship
An opportunity for young talent to experience
first-hand the major new countries of the global economy...
The Global Fellowship is an opportunity for UK school and
college leavers (age 18+) to engage with exciting
international opportunities for their future.
Cultures and people around the world
are connected more than ever before, opening up exciting
possibilities for young people. It matters that today’s generation
of young people grow up understanding first-hand what globalization
means and are confident to make the most of the opportunities of
the twenty first century.
The programme
The Global Fellowship programme offers 100 school and college
leavers the opportunity to experience first-hand the social,
economic and environmental impact of globalisation. We work with
self-starting young people from all over England and facilitate
conversations with their peers, families, teachers and business
people in the tiger economies of Brazil, China and India,
strengthening mutual trust and understanding between
them.
The tailor-made six-week trip is made up of three
parts:
- two weeks language and cultural immersion
- two weeks staying in a local school and staying in a host
family
- two weeks in a global company (we work in partnership with
global corporate brands such as HSBC, Cadbury, Tata and KPMG)
On their return all Fellows join a network of globally-minded
young people who share their experiences and learning on local and
national platforms and are given the opportunity to share their
story with a wide range of people, decision makers and community
leaders.
