Fellowship - Global Health Corps
A GHC fellowship is an exciting opportunity to build skills and gain experience with a high-impact health organization, but it’s also much more than that. It’s a year that will catalyze your personal and professional growth as a leader, placing you within a global and diverse network of bright, young, and committed health equity champions. It is – we hope – the beginning of the rest of your career working to transform health systems to deliver for all.

The selection process is highly competitive. Candidates must be between 30 and 40 years old when they apply to the program. A jury evaluates candidates based on their potential to attain the highest level of leadership in their chosen profession, their ability to contribute to the enrichment of today's world, and their enthusiasm to participate and to remain an active member of the alumni community.

For more information, please visit our website or contact Katie DeMallie, Program Director, at kdemallie@frenchamerican.org. The application is due March 20, 2019.

Introducing UNC’s First Annual week-long Makeathon (February 10-16)! The Carolina Challenge Makeathon is a creative, cross-campus competition which accelerates innovative ideas into physical and digital prototypes that promote positive social impact. Students will form academically diverse teams of 3-5 members who will compete in one of two tracks: digital or physical product development. They will have special access to on-campus makerspaces, app labs, workshops, and expert mentors to design, reiterate, and enhance their products, business models, and pitches. The Makeathon culminates in a final pitch event where students and other expert judges vote to determine which teams win over $10,000 in cash and other prizes and opportunities.

Want to join in on the fun but don't know where to start? Join us for our team building workshop. You'll get the chance to mingle with other makers, strike up conversations, explore ideas and form teams.

Cato’s paid internships are for undergraduates, recent graduates, graduate students, law students, and early-career professionals who have a strong commitment to individual liberty, limited government, free markets, and peace—principles that, taken together, constitute libertarianism. 

Interns receive a stipend of $1000 per month. Interns who are in law school or who hold a JD receive a stipend of $1400 per month. All internships take place at the Cato Institute in Washington DC. Applications are due February 15. Click here to apply.

The ideal candidate will have the ability to write copy on the fly, integrate and synthesize new data, analyze and observe digital content performance and offer tactical counsel, and present to C-suite leaders, executives and local business operators alike.
