Hello Friends of Global Health Corps, I am excited to announce that the application for the 2013-2014 Global Health Corps <http://ghcorps.org/connect/apply> fellowship is NOW OPEN! Each year, we select exceptional and driven people with varied skill-sets and experiences to participate in the fellowship, and this year we need your help to find our next class of emerging leaders in global health. Applications close February 3, 2013 at <http://www.ghcorps.org/apply> http://ghcorps.org/connect/apply In case you’re not familiar with our program, here’s a short background: Global Health Corps is mobilizing a global community of emerging leaders to build the movement for health equity. We place talented individuals from a wide variety of backgrounds in high impact roles in NGOs and government agencies in sub-Saharan Africa and the US for one year. A key part of the GHC fellowship is support – fellows are provided housing, a living stipend, medical insurance, transportation, mentorship and professional development training. During the fellowship year, fellows collaborate, innovate, and create sustainable and impactful change. This year, applicants can apply for 3 positions<http://ghcorps.org/connect/through-placements> that match their interests and skills, from project management to monitoring and evaluation, engineering, communications and more. We are looking for people from a broad range of sectors and disciplines. No prior health experience is necessary! The only requirements are that applicants be 30 years old or younger, hold a university degree, and be proficient in English. Here are two easy ways you can help us spread the word: 1) Forward this email to anyone who may be interested in the fellowship 2) Facebook and Tweet about GHC on your personal or organizational social media pages.
