Dear Friend

Good luck with your application for the Gandhi Fellowship Program 2013-2015 batch.

This is an application form that requires you to take your time and give due thought to

each question. While it will capture several pieces of essential information, it is also

meant to give insights into you as a person.

We would like to know about your accomplishments and the roads that led to them,

about important roles that you may have played as a leader or as the member of a

team, about your capacity for problem solving and of course about the texture and

depth of your drive to create constructive change in the world around.

Feel free to be as descriptive and articulate as necessary. Do illustrate your responses

with multiple instances if you feel the need. The answers bear the responsibility of

giving us glimpses into the nature of your rigour, excellence, self- awareness, capacity

for collaborative team work and most importantly the originality and authenticity of your

thoughts and dreams.

Please e-mail the completed application to [email protected]. Mention “GFP 2013 <APPLICANT NAME>” in the Subject Line of the email.

Do not worry about the size of the available box-space for your answers in the

application. The boxes will automatically expand as you write. If possible, try and stay

within the specified word count.

We hope you enjoy the process of filling up of this application.

All the Best- Fellowship Team
