Fellows selected for the Coalition Africa Fellowship Program 2025 will engage in a structured set of activities throughout the 12-month duration. These activities are designed to build leadership, technical, and project management skills while fostering cross-cultural collaboration.

Here are the core tasks and components of the fellowship:

1. Weekly and Bi-Weekly Virtual Sessions

  • Fellows will participate in interactive learning sessions covering themes such as leadership development, social entrepreneurship, grassroots organizing, fundraising, digital activism, and decolonial frameworks.
  • Sessions will include guest lectures, panel discussions, and workshops led by experienced mentors and thought leaders.

2. Mentorship and Coaching

  • Each fellow is matched with a dedicated mentor who provides one-on-one guidance tailored to their goals.
  • Mentors include seasoned activists, scholars, policy experts, and NGO leaders from across Africa and the diaspora.

3. Peer Collaboration and Networking

  • Fellows are grouped into peer learning pods to foster accountability and collaboration.
  • The fellowship encourages cross-national partnerships and group projects that address shared challenges in participants’ communities.

4. Community Engagement and Capstone Projects

  • Each fellow is expected to design and implement a community-based initiative during the course of the fellowship.
  • These capstone projects are grounded in real-world needs and provide an opportunity to apply learning in practical contexts.

5. Fellowship Retreats and Digital Summits

  • Virtual retreats are held at key points in the fellowship to reflect, recharge, and reconnect.
  • Fellows also participate in regional and global summits organized by The Coalition Africa, offering exposure and engagement with global social impact conversations.

6. Professional Development Resources

  • Career coaching and resume support are available to help fellows advance professionally post-program.

Think you have what it takes but not sure you check every box? Research shows that while men apply to roles when they meet an average of 60% of the criteria, women often only apply when they meet every requirement. If you are hesitating, apply!
