Social Impact Fellowship
About Fellowship
Social Impact Fellowship of Ladli Foundation is a unique opportunity to enhance your profile credentials for career development by exploring the grassroots realities in rural and urban slums of India.
This fellowship is designed to empower young individuals by immersing them in the real-world challenges faced by marginalized communities, offering a powerful departure from classroom theory into hands-on social action. Through active participation in Ladli Foundation’s on-ground programs, fellows will gain a nuanced understanding of systemic issues such as gender inequality, poverty, health disparities, and child protection. The experience is deeply rooted in community engagement, where fellows will learn to communicate empathetically, build trust with beneficiaries, and co-create solutions alongside grassroots leaders.
In addition to field exposure, the fellowship offers a structured environment for developing research skills, conducting needs assessments, documenting field impact, and analyzing grassroots interventions. This blend of experiential learning, research, and storytelling makes the fellowship a launchpad for youth looking to drive social change with authenticity, insight, and purpose.

“From November 2024 to April 2025, my fellowship journey has been enriching and impactful. I contributed to key projects like the Immunization Impact Report, GBS Impact Report, Annual Report, and various presentations—handling content, editing, design, and data visualization.
