Society for Agequake Student Designers Fellowship
Competition winners become fellows — applying their knowledge and expertise in service of their own communities, particularly older persons.
Fellowship overall purpose
To provide future leadership and meaningful opportunities for Competition winners, a group of university students, to give back to their local society, particularly older persons by:
- Applying their knowledge and expertise;
- Harnessing and developing a corps of fellows as “Ambassadors” for local authorities and non-profit organizations; and
- Linking these talented and uniquely trained future leaders to be of service to those at the regional and local levels, in the public and private sector and to NGOs.
Fellowship program
The winners from the Student Competition are eligible to become fellows and would have the opportunity to participate in a three or six-month fellowship within their home country that will align with their professional interests. Students will seek out opportunities that work to give back to their communities while utilizing the students’ unique background and knowledge. Their research and recommendations will be published in their local language and English so that a global network may benefit from their work.
