Social innovators, entrepreneurs, and practitioners like you have been solving problems within a resource-constrained setup, wrapped around a complex ecosystem of partners and stakeholders.

BRAC Frugal Innovation Fellowship 2024 is aimed at supporting young innovators working in the space of climate initiatives in any of these 6 countries - Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, South Sudan, Kenya, and Bangladesh. This fellowship programme is coordinated by the BRAC Social Innovation Lab (SIL), Bangladesh, along with BRAC International.

NB: The applicant should have been working with their initiative for about 2-3 years and not more

The fellowship will offer:

Fellowship Award: A grant of $10,000 will be awarded to each fellow to support their initiative/innovation.

An opportunity to Present their Innovation and Findings at FIF 2024: Fellows will have the opportunity to present the insights and evidence generated during their fellowship at FIF 2024 (to be held tentatively in Bangladesh in late-October), in the presence of fellow practitioners, sector leaders and other ecosystem players.

An opportunity to Connect with Development Sector Leaders: Throughout the fellowship, as well as during their attendance in FIF, the fellows will be connected with practitioners and sector leaders.

On-ground Support: The fellows will be provided on-ground support as they test out their ideas and interventions in their space of operations.

Mentorship Support: The fellows will be provided mentorship and guidance to help them build on to their professional and aspirational goals with the hope of equipping them with the tools to contextually scale up their initiative.
