Be a change-maker in the movement to end global hunger: apply now to be a Mickey Leland International Hunger Fellow for 2023-2025. Through placements at host organizations (NGOs and multilateral organizations) Leland Fellows gain compensation, professional experience and learn powerful lessons about leadership while promoting food and nutrition security. Through the fellowship's unique two-placement structure (with 1 year in the Global South and 1 year at the same organization’s HQ, Regional or policy office) fellows learn what's working in international development — what's not — and how to make the system more effective, efficient, and just. Applications must be received by February 13th, 2023. Learn more and read our guide for prospective applications at https://hungercenter.org/what-we-do/leland-fellowship/fellows/
