Fellowship placements for the 2011-12 fellowship year are offered in Burundi, Malawi, Rwanda, Uganda, and the USA. For each placement, two fellows will be selected: One in-country fellow (citizen of the placement country), and one international fellow (US citizens for placements in Africa; any non-US citizen for placements in the US).
Global Health Corps Fellows must:
* Be under age 30 at the time of application
* Have an undergraduate university degree by July 2011
* Be proficient in English
No specific background or technical experience is necessary, as each individual fellowship placement will require different specific skills. Review the fellowship placement descriptions (posted February 1st) to learn about the specific assignments and the skills that our placement organizations are looking for.
For all Fellowships, we value three qualities: strength of character, relevant skills and experience, and leadership.
