FEMME FIRST FOUNDATION - SHE RUNS GOVERNMENT FELLOWSHIP

Femme First Foundation is a non-partisan, non-profit organization committed to amplifying women’s leadership in Indian politics. The aim is to nurture and groom women, political leaders, to build a better world. The She Runs Government Fellowship is a six-month program that is focused on capacity-building, training, and mentorship of women in politics. It seeks to enhance and improve the quality of political participation of women. The fellows will undergo residential in-person workshops, intensive virtual learning sessions, and hands-on mentorship by seasoned women politicians. This three-pronged approach will provide an academic grounding of democratic frameworks and policy-making, up-skill them with practical know-hows of electioneering, build the fellows' personal brands through personalized Public Narrative trainings by coaches from Harvard Kennedy School, and learn the ropes of politicking directly from a mentor who is undergoing the realities and tackling the challenges of being a woman in public office.
