Program description:

The Lazord Fellowship partners are pleased to announce the opening of applications to become a 2024-2025 Lazord Fellow. As a Lazord Fellow, you would be joining a multi-dimensional program that seeks to empower its fellows to develop a critical understanding of civic engagement, and to improve their leadership and technical skills for their future careers in all sectors. The program achieves its mission through offering mentoring, providing job opportunities in organizations striving to advance the common good, and creating enriched educational opportunities.

The first Lazord Fellowship began in Egypt in 2010. It currently has chapters in Egypt, Jordan, Tunisia and Greece working with over 50 organizations. The fellowship is a yearlong regional program that includes a chance for the chapters and fellows in Egypt, Jordan, Tunisia and Greece to meet all together twice a year (whether in person, or virtually). After a competitive recruitment effort, fellows are selected in each of the 4  countries and placed for one year in a local organization. The fellowship offers trainings, mentorship, and networking opportunities for fellows, guiding them through their year and helping them realize their full potential as responsible leaders.
