Shuttleworth Foundation Fellowship

About


The Foundation offers fellowships to individuals to implement their innovative idea for social change. We are most interested in exceptional ideas at the intersection between openness, technology, knowledge and learning. Ideas that would really move the dial on access to global knowledge, social and economic development.

The fellowship is not an academic fellowship aimed at research or academic study. Applicants should be social change agents who push boundaries and challenge accepted norms. They need not have all the answers, but should ask the right questions in a practical context.

Who can apply


- Anyone who has an innovative idea for social change through fresh thinking that adds value in the areas of knowledge, learning and technology.
- Anyone who has a clear vision of how the world can be a better place and the contribution they can make to bringing about the change.
- The fellowship is not limited to any specific geographic location. However, applicants must be fluent in English.
- Fellowship applicants must have attained the age of majority by the date of application.

Scholarship


The equivalent of a year’s salary, a contribution towards expenses plus access to a travel allowance. In addition, the Fellow will have access to potential project funding from the Foundation, who will match the Fellow’s personal investment in projects by at least ten fold. The total grant amount will be based on the Fellow’s qualifications, experience and comparable cost of time for their skill level.

Duration of scholarship is 1 year, with the possibility of renewal, based on reapplication.
