Leadership and Fellowship Pathways
CSRC uses fellowships, mentoring, and short-format training to help early-career and emerging civil society actors build the capabilities they need to lead organisations and campaigns well.
Practical learning for emerging and mid-career civic leaders.
In 2025 CSRC publicly opened applications for an Emerging Civil Society Leaders Fellowship, presenting it as a six-month hands-on learning experience for recent graduates and young civic actors.
Public descriptions of the fellowship point to a practice-based curriculum covering project cycle management, human rights based approaches, fundraising, social media management, and action planning.
This work fits a broader CSRC pattern also seen through ACLP-linked learning and partner-facing leadership development references.
