leaders in the development sector
How do we empower a generation to lead change with a platform approach? In early 2018, this question propelled our team at Mantra4Change to design and launch a one-of-its-kind fellowship program. With a vision to shape and transform youth to platform champions in the development ecosystem, we welcomed the first Cohort of five fellows and two partner organizations in August 2018.
Today, our fellows are creating solutions for stakeholders across domains and organizations all over India.

ShikshaKalp, a 20-month fellowship program, is creating a generation of adaptable thinkers who are sensitized to systemic issues and work with organizations in the ecosystem to create assets and solutions that impact at scale by leveraging platform thinking.
