ABOUT

Sewa Fellowship is a strategic investment in human capacity, and grassroots organizations to build solutions for India’s complex socio-economic-cultural matrix. We believe in the power and potential of youth to drive ideas, run movements, nurture organizations, and seek truth and justice to together build a better Bharat.

As a 100-week program, the fellowship equips young, bright minds with knowledge, skills, and a mindset to serve. With extensive mentor support, the program bridges the needs of grassroots development with a vision for the future.

ELIGIBILITY

Indicative Age: 21-30 years

Must have some volunteer experience with the community, with a minimum 1 year of equivalent work experience

Language constraints based on project locations

STIPEND

Around 30,000 per month during the entire period of grassroots work. This will be in the form of a direct stipend, dedicated fixed deposits, house rent allowance, and other allowances. Apart from this, there would be an additional investment of around ₹15,000 per month per fellow, on the training. This would be in the form of courses, reflective activities, immersive programs, and hands-on workshops.

CURRICULUM

The curriculum will be deeply rooted in a doer’s perspective of social development at the grassroots. The entire structure is based on three pillars i.e. knowledge, skill, and will-power of the individual. The fellows would undergo 300 hours of curriculum each year, from residential boot camps, retreat camps, and online lectures. This is over and beyond the learning experiences that would happen while working on the ground.

The curriculum is an outcome of a deep reflection on India’s current and future needs, and the preparedness needed to fulfill the same. The curriculum is built with extensive consultations with grassroots leaders, domain experts, and senior academicians. An elaborate curriculum is also available on the fellowship homepage.

SELECTION PROCESS

There are two formats to apply:

• Direct sign-up by the applicant.
• Nomination by his/her senior. This can be a reporting manager, professor, teacher, guru, colleague, or mentor.

This would be followed by an application form and a statement of purpose.

The next stage of the selection involves some activities that the fellow would need to undertake in his/her own location/geography, followed by a telephonic conversation.

The next stage involves in-person interaction with some group activities.

The activities in both stages are designed to fulfill three purposes: fun-filled learnings, understanding the on-ground nature of the fellows, and providing an immersive perspective of the fellowship and the aspiring fellow.

CALENDAR

The entire fellowship program is structured to maximize learning for the fellows. Here are some key elements:

• Social BootCamp: We begin the program with a 21-day residential Bootcamp to provide a landscape view of the social sector, train them on key skills needed, and build perspective on development and grassroots change.
• Grassroots Work: Each fellow would have a dedicated project to serve a community. This can be in any domain of development, like education, health, livelihoods, etc, based on the available projects and interests of the fellow.
• Immersive Programs: Every 3-4 months, the fellows would join an immersive program with a senior social leader to deepen their understanding of society, nation, and the world.
• Weekend Sessions: Every weekend, the fellows would have 2-3 sessions in the form of courses, peer activities, mentor sessions, and reflective exercises.

Applications for Roundtable Commonwealth Studentship 2022-2023 for research on commonwealth themes are open.

ABOUT

The Ph.D. studentships provide support for research projects on Commonwealth-related themes.

Two studentships are available each year, to the value of £5,500 GBP each:

• One for students registered at UK universities
• One for students registered at universities in other Commonwealth countries

Proposed research must:

• relate to the Commonwealth as a whole or to any Commonwealth-wide institution or organization, or
• have a strong Commonwealth comparative aspect, or
• be of relevance to a Commonwealth country other than the UK.

For example, a research project comparing LGBT rights in South Africa and Uganda would be eligible, as would a project on the reform of colonial-era anti-LGBT legislation in India, but a project on the role of Stonewall in advocating for LGBT rights in the UK would not.

Applications are welcomed from a broad range of disciplines in the humanities and social sciences, but preference may be given to disciplines usually covered by the Round Table journal, including (but not exclusively) politics, international relations, economics, international history, geography, law, development studies, and area studies.

The studentships are funded by The Round Table: The Commonwealth Journal of International Affairs and the journal’s publisher, Routledge, in association with the ACU.

ELIGIBILITY

The first studentship is open to registered Ph.D. students from UK universities, although not necessarily UK citizens.

The second is open to registered Ph.D. students from ACU member universities [https://www.acu.ac.uk/our-members/] in Commonwealth counties other than the UK, and to Chevening and Commonwealth Scholarship alumni who are Ph.D. students at any Commonwealth university outside the UK.

MENTORSHIP

As part of the studentship, applicants are required to identify and work with a mentor at a university in a Commonwealth country [https://thecommonwealth.org/member-countries] other than that in which they are based. This should be an expert in a subject linked to the applicant’s subject of research, who will be able to provide support and advice during the studentship. Before applying, applicants are encouraged to informally approach at least one potential mentor and, if their application is successful, will then be required to obtain a letter of support from their mentor to agree to the mentorship before their studentship is confirmed.

THE ROLE OF THE MENTOR

The mentor will be expected to hold a minimum of two virtual meetings with the student during the period of the studentship. They will be expected to be in contact with the student by email to share their experiences in their relevant field, provide advice around publishing, events, and trends in their field, and challenge and empower the student to consider new ways of thinking.

The mentor will also be expected to contribute to either the podcast or the article and will be paid an honorarium of £500 GBP, payable at the end of the studentship. Mentors must read and abide by the mentor code of conduct guidelines

TIMELINE

Deadline for applications: 23:59 GMT on 31 July 2022

Announcement of winners: September 2022

Take-up of awards: 1 November 2022 to July 2023
