ABOUT THE FELLOWSHIP
We are looking for social justice leaders, thought leaders, doers, and believers passionate about finding new ways to impact communities and effect lasting, equitable change.
We’re looking to partner with people who know the way things are currently just ain’t working; we’re looking for those who see inequality and want to do something about it.
The people that do not accept injustice will define the new status quo.
If you are one of those people, we want to support you.
To sum it up, we're looking for Voqalists.
2025 Fellowship applications ARE CLOSED
Thank you to everyone who submitted your ideas for a better world through our fellowship application. We received a record number and will begin the process to review submissions. We will update applicants as we go, and we’ll share all about the 2025 Fellows once selected in the new year.
Want to learn more about the program? Voqal Partners hosted an information session on Wednesday, September 18. You can view the recording by clicking here. A running audio transcript is also available at the link, with the option to download. You can view the slides by clicking here. Applications for the 2026 Fellowship will open in September of next year.
We also offer a detailed application overview and a preview of the application questions.
We know you have questions, and
we can’t wait to answer them.
The Fellowship is an opportunity to live your dream out loud alongside peers and comrades. You’ll receive capacity-building support to enact your vision, including the opportunity to build deep relationships with your cohort members through facilitated in-person and virtual gatherings.
Each Fellow will receive a $30,000 award, a health care stipend, and access to a network of advisors, coaches, and mentors. The program also covers travel costs to attend three in-person gatherings.
The program lasts for six (6) months, running from April 1 – September 30 each year.
We’re looking for community leaders with a vision for a better today, who are ready to make liberation our reality. We want Bold Agitators Disrupting Abusive Social Situations – all you BADASSes out there – who won’t let anyone else feel the heavy hand of oppression.
