Thank you for your interest in the 2025 Global Citizen Fellowship!

The Global Citizen Fellowship (GCF) is a yearlong program for undergraduate students at ICU which aims to nurture global citizens who will contribute to the wellbeing of humanity. 

• Based on the three pillars of global citizenship: awareness, responsibility, and participation, GCF is designed to allow participants to explore their values, develop an awareness of the world and their place in it, and seek ways to contribute to the common good. The fully-funded program is free to the 12 participants.

To be considered, applicants must be available for the entire program. While the primary language of GCF is English, we welcome students to apply regardless of English fluency.
