Overview
The 2012 Ford Motor Company International Fellowship of 92nd Street Y is currently accepting applications from community leaders who are citizens and residents of Albania, Bolivia, Democratic Republic of Congo, Ecuador, Haiti, India, Israel, Mongolia, Peru, Tunisia and Zambia.
A successful applicant must demonstrate that he or she:
• is a community leader engaged in the nonprofit sector, either professionally or as a volunteer;
• is successfully addressing issues that affect the community’s well-being; and
• would benefit from an intensive three-week nonprofit management training course in New York.
Previous Ford Fellows include:
• a South African AIDS educator;
• the president of a Jewish aid society facilitating Bosnia-Herzegovina’s transition to democracy;
• a sustainable development expert from Zimbabwe;
• the founder of an Indian organization that educates women and children working in the silk industry; and
• an Indonesian advocate for ethnic minorities.
The residency takes place Thursday, May 31 to Wednesday, Jun 20, 2011 in New York City. Airfare, accommodation, food, transportation, instruction and other program-related expenses are included in the fellowship and participants receive a small stipend upon arrival.
During the intensive three-week residency, Ford Fellows take classes in areas including nonprofit management strategy and leadership training at Columbia University’s Picker Center for Executive Education. The academic curriculum is complemented by visits to model nonprofits in New York City and meetings with academic, business and government leaders. The experience is enhanced by Fellows’ residency at 92nd Street Y, the world’s first global Jewish community and cultural center. Founded in 1874 and considered a New York landmark, 92nd Street Y annually serves over 300,000 people of all backgrounds, religions, nationalities, ethnicities, races and socio-economic groups.
