NGOs and development organisations play a crucial role in creating human and social capital, often with limited resources. Sewa International Fellowship provides an on-the-job 'earn while you learn' model, imparting theoretical and practical knowledge to passionate youth with professional qualifications. It's a unique initiative to create change-makers and leaders for the benefit of various stakeholders.

Dr. Dhananjay Sagdeo

Sewa Fellowship is a very innovative program to equip young bright minds with knowledge and skills to serve our motherland. I am sure, more inspired youth will come forward to join Sewa Fellowship to solve together India's complex Socio economic and cultural problems and build a better Bharat.

Mr. Sudarshan
Faculty Member
Vivekananda Institute for Leadership Development & Vivekananda Institute of Indian Studies

The Sewa Fellowship Program offers an excellent opportunity for youth to gain experiential learning and immerse themselves in the development sector. The program's design, including boot camps for peer learning, could be further improved with a better M&E mechanism and continuous mentorship. The present cohort needs to be more self-driven and adapt to the sector's uncertainties. Structuring the program and creating an online platform for sharing and learning would be a great initiative.

The Sewa International Fellowship program is designed to invest in and nurture individuals who can contribute to resolving complex socio-economic-cultural challenges in India. It offers experiential skill-building sessions, community immersions, live projects, and mentorship.

Ms. Suparna Diwakar
Manager
Chief Consultant, National Curriculum Framework

I have had the privilege of working with the SEWA Fellowship team to develop the curriculum. The programme is designed to nurture grassroots development leadership. It is anchored in the Bharatiya concept of individual growth and evolution through seva. It has a balance of practice and theory, a praxis that enables honing of dispositions, knowledge acquisition, and skills to facilitate social change. The ‘getting-your-hands-dirty’ experiential dimension is very rich on account of the opportunity it provides for Fellows to work on live projects under the mentorship of some of India’s most renowned social leaders.
