		  <title>Indicorps Fellowship: Service for the Soul</title>
		  <link>http://www.ngojobs.in/view_opportunity.php?inqId=27</link>
		  <description>The Indicorps fellowship is a profound personal experience and an opportunity to understand participatory development through intense voluntary service. The structured program encourages participants to leave their comfort zones, place others' interests before their own, test their own potential to affect change, explore their relationship with India, and understand what it means to lead by committing themselves to innovative grassroots projects. Indicorps believes that giving one's time and energy, without any attachment to the outcome, regardless of the circumstances, is an unparalleled personal experience in service. At the same time, the fellowship is a chance for fellows to address their own identity, recognize their personal boundaries, and understand how to produce change in their environment(s). The fellowship is deeply rewarding, a transformational and challenging personal journey, and part of Indicorps’ collective experiment for change.

Apply now: http://apply.indicorps.org/

Complete applications and supplemental materials due (postmark date) 01 Mar, 2010

Approach to development:
Indicorps’ approach to development involves a total investment of body, mind and soul into the process of “being the change.” Fellows take individual personal responsibility to execute and complete projects, defined in partnership with local development organizations, that address particular community challenges. Recognizing the project as a foundational cornerstone or platform for change, Indicorps pushes fellows to actively test their and creatively explore the possibilities of community-oriented leadership.

More about the Fellowship program:

Each year, Indicorps selects young professionals of Indian origin for one and two year service fellowships with grassroots service organizations in India. To be eligible for the fellowship program, you must be a person of Indian origin (Government of India definition) and have at minimum a university degree or five years work experience. Individuals apply specifically to projects of their interest.

The first month of the fellowship involves an -intense, physically and mentally rigorous, month-long orientation to India, the Indicorps philosophy, and practical living. In conjunction with grassroots fieldwork, Indicorps also requires fellows to attend periodic workshops that encourage participants to deepen their understanding of Indian development, to reflect, to share progress, to collectively solve problems, and to re-energize. Some fellows opt for a second year to broaden their understanding of development and take leadership in managing projects or Indicorps programs.

The fellowship has stringent documentation requirements and promotes self-accountability. The program is carefully crafted to consider long-term impact and to defy common critiques of both international volunteers and the organizations with which they work.

Indicorps provides a nominal stipend to enable fellows to live simply and work in India for the duration of their fellowship. Basic room, board, and fellowship-related travel are covered by Indicorps or the local project partner organization. Indicorps is a total immersion program and encourages fellows to be a part of their communities to the greatest extent possible - including attempting to live within the means of their location.

		  <title>Pravah - Associate Coordinator</title>
		  <link>http://www.ngojobs.in/view_opportunity.php?inqId=98</link>
		  <description>When you work with Pravah you walk the thin line between…

Sacrifice and Social Responsibility
Indiscipline and creativity
Hindi and English
Black and White

Me and We

ABOUT PRAVAH
At Pravah (www.pravah.org) we support young people bring about the positive change they wish to see – in their own selves and the society around them.
When we started out 15 years ago (Pravah was registered in 1993), that is what we committed to bring about –  a society where young people are active citizens – addressing issues of social justice the way they are most inspired to. The founders were all young professionals themselves then – from the corporate, management and development fields. They are still as active in keeping that vision alive. 
Today our work has a diverse range – working with adolescents on issues of social justice and conflict transformation, facilitating college students to build their understanding of local and global issues, supporting young people to start their own social initiatives or organisations, building capacities of other organizations through organizational development and programmatic support. We are also engaged in influencing public policy in the field of youth. Our core competence lies in designing and facilitating creative and impactful experiential learning initiatives for the diverse groups we engage with, in order to create a just society – a society built on values of non-violence, love, diversity, interdependence, collaboration and sustainable development. That, besides making a case for youth development in India.

We are looking for Associate coordinators in SMILE, Adolescent Intervention, Change Looms and Partner Cell 
SMILE	
SMILE offers young people various opportunities to engage with issues of social justice through experiential learning methodologies and creative media. It facilitates a journey of personal transformation for young people and develops their skills to explore, understand and influence change in society on issues they are passionate about. We do this through interactive workshops, hands on exposure to urban and rural social realities through camps (within and outside Delhi) as well as interventions that enhance young people’s skills to impact social change. 
Adolescent Intervention
Our Adolescent intervention, aims to build leadership for social change among adolescents through lifeskills and active citizenship education. . We facilitate adolescents to look beyond themselves and fulfil roles as socially responsible citizens through various curriculum. From Me to We builds life skills in adolescents, facilitates them to deal with conflicts positively, and equips them with the skills to become active citizens. Friendship Udankhatola (FUN) Camp takes urban adolescents to live with a village community for a week. Here, the adolescents interact with the communities and gain exposure to local development issues while they break stereotypes and learn to appreciate diversity.
Change Looms
Change Looms is a programme that supports those young people (18-27) and teams who have set up and are running independent initiatives and projects for social change. Through the Change Looms programme we offer training and skill building on personal and organisational development to these young people. We also provide mentoring support, opportunity to network with other young changemakers and social sector leaders. 
Partner Cell 
The Streaming function was set up in 2006 as an initiative to enhance the collective work of Pravah and similar organizations towards advocating for youth development and active citizenship for social change. Our areas of support to partner organizations (youth-led or otherwise) include program development, instructional design, facilitation and delivery. We also offer our experience in organizational development of youth organisation in areas such as human resource, strategic planning, organisational culture building etc. 
Teachers’ Training
The teachers’ intervention is part of our effort to make the Making Changemakers programme a self – sustaining one in the schools we collaborate with. We believe that by supporting and nurturing appropriate skills and attitudes in teachers we can eventually impact successive generations in society. Through our intervention with teachers we train teachers nominated by schools, to independently conduct a life skills and active citizenship programmes with students of the school.
