Piramal Foundation invites applications for Gandhi Fellowship

CSR
Piramal Foundation has announced the call for applications for Gandhi Fellowship. Gandhi Fellowship, an initiative of the Piramal Foundation, is a 2-year program for the youth to work at the grassroots of India and acquire in-depth experience across areas of Public Health, Education, Climate Change and Digitization.

  The Fellowship endeavours to mould self-motivated youth across the country into becoming leaders of tomorrow by providing them with an opportunity to make a difference on the ground.

  This deep-dive Fellowship identifies youth based on their existing skills and competencies, customised according to the aspirational path identified, enabling Fellows to realise their aspirations on the firm foundation of on-ground and grass root public realities.

  These young people are also equipped with the necessary soft skills to successfully cope with and navigate every situation in the 21st century. They play critical roles in bringing about sustainable change.

  Interested applicants can log onto www.gandhifellowship.com and apply. The last date of application is 31st March 2023. For queries, please write to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

  Aditya Natraj, the CEO of Piramal Foundation, shared his thoughts on the Gandhi Fellowship – “We started ten years ago when there was no other fellowship in the country to get involved in building self and building the nation. Recruiters want to recruit Gandhi Fellows because they are ethical, grounded, know how to influence government, know how to get things and know how to lead people. So, that’s the brand we want to build for the country.”

  India has the highest youth population in the world in the age group of 15-29 years, comprising 27.2 percent of the nation’s population (as per the Report of Technical Group on Population Projections, 2020, constituted by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare). Leveraging this vast youth power is a crucial way of realising Hon. Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of India as a developed nation by 2047.
