What is the Pride Fellowship? The Pride Fellowship is a 3-month intensive program to dive into the conversation that’s been happening in queer communities around Israel, Gaza, and antisemitism. We’ll have opportunities to strengthen our community, foster compassionate dialogue & understanding, and create impact through confident and courageous conversations, advocacy & action.
Where is this fellowship located? Zioness is primarily a remote organization and this role will require the facilitation of in-person Pride Meetups in your local community. Additionally, a Pride Summit will take place during the program in NYC.
What is the start date? June 13, 2024
What is the compensation for this fellowship? Fellows will receive a $1,800 stipend for their time and participation. Half of the stipend will be sent halfway through the fellowship and the second half will be sent once the fellowship is complete.
What are the expectations of the fellowship? This is a collaborative program! We expect our fellows to show up and give as much as they get.
This is also an intensive fellowship so please apply only if you can dedicate at least 20 hours over the next 3 months, specifically to attend 6 virtual sessions, 1 in-person summit, and work on individual & community advocacy initiatives.
