Leadership in Government Fellowship - for US

Funds for NGOs
Last date 15 July 2016

Activities: Others

The Open Society Foundations are pleased to announce a new opportunity for senior-level government officials and staff in the United States who have recently left public service. Open Society’s U.S. Programs will award individual grants in 2016 to people who have played a significant role in advancing social change from within government in the United States at the local, state, or federal levels.

We are looking for public-sector leaders interested in using this fellowship opportunity to reflect on their time in government and to undertake a project that advances policy ideas and inserts their unique perspectives about driving change from within government into the public dialogue. The fellowship is a pilot grant-making program in 2016 and is part of a larger effort within the Open Society Foundations to invest in new voices that inform and challenge our collective thinking about advancing open society in the United States.

Fellows will receive funding (in the general range of $100,000 to $133,000) depending on work experience, seniority, and percentage of time committed to the project, which will range from 12 to 18 months in duration.

Eligibility Criteria:All projects must relate to one or more of U.S. Programs’ central goals: a more inclusive and accountable American democracy; a fair criminal justice system; full political, economic, and civic participation of communities of color and immigrants; and equitable economic growth. Projects can focus on a particular issue or cut across these broad areas of interest. Please carefully review the complete guidelines for more details on the fellowship requirements.

Purpose and Priorities:A project might identify a problem in the implementation of policy that has yet to be fully recognized or discussed, offer new strategies on how to work with government and advocate for policy change, or highlight a different approach for legislative or executive action. We strongly encourage applications for projects that offer unique insights and perspectives into how government implements programs and policies with an eye towards their effect on low-income communities, communities of color, immigrants, and otherwise historically marginalized communities in the United States.

We strongly encourage applications from people who see themselves serving as change agents within government again in the future or are looking to apply their public service knowledge and experience to an advocacy career. People of all political parties, ideologies, and levels of government (i.e., city, county, state, federal) are encouraged to apply.

Applicants who are uncertain whether some aspect of their proposed project fits within the parameters of the Leadership in Government Fellowships guidelines may submit a brief email inquiry before proceeding with the full application. Please send queries to: USPfellowships@opensocietyfoundations.org.

Guidelines:Download and review the complete guidelines and application form in the Download Files section. Completed applications must be submitted via email to USPfellowships@opensocietyfoundations.org by July 15, 2016. In the subject line, please use the following format: “Last Name, Proposal Name.”
