About us
Thank you for showing interest in our Global Leadership Fellows Program. Please note that the program is temporarily suspended. We shall announce to all our partners and the global science communication community once we resume.
The Alliance for Science Global Leadership Fellows Program is a 12-week intensive training course held on the Cornell University campus in Ithaca, NY, USA. It is designed to equip and empower emerging international leaders who are committed to advocating for science-based communications and access to scientific innovation in their home countries. The training focuses on strategic planning, grassroots organizing, and innovative communications with a strong focus on stories of science and effective communications around agricultural biotechnology.
Throughout the course, Fellows work to build comprehensive strategic communications plans promoting access to scientific innovation in their local contexts while engaged in seminars and workshops led by international thought leaders and subject matter experts, weekly colloquia organized and led by Fellows, and field trips to New York State farms and state-of-the-art research facilities.
