Apply for the Young Pacific Leaders Professional Fellows Program!

Updated: May 23, 2025



What is the program?

Fellows are placed in non-profit organizations, private sector businesses, and government offices across the U.S. for an individually tailored professional development experience. Throughout the program, each Fellow develops an Action Plan for a follow-on project to be implemented upon their return home. At the conclusion of the exchange, program alumni will be eligible for seed funding to support them in completing a follow-on activity within their home communities to advance their professional goals. Alumni will have the opportunity to host an American Fellow for a reciprocal exchange.


Who is eligible?

This fellow program is for mid-level emerging leaders from the Pacific Islands and the United States.


Applications Due: May 26, 2025

The Future Ancestors Program acknowledges the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the traditional custodians of so-called Australia.

 

We acknowledge Turrbal and Yaggera country - places on which we gather that have always been enriched by lore, community, culture and identity.

 

We recognise all indigenous people, in particular those from the Pacific and the interwoven history we share with the First Nations people of Australia.
