Fellowship
One of SVARAJ’s core areas has been the Fellowship Programme. A dedicated team of individual fellows who use their strengths and knowledge of the most deprived communities to campaign at local, regional and national levels on issues ranging from basic human rights to food security, right to information, disaster preparedness and water concerns.

Svaraj envisages to capitalize, support and build the capacity of committed individuals working in the spirit of voluntarism and alongside the communities at a local level for bringing about community initiatives/actions.
The fellows will actively learn and understand the concerns, the need, and the cause/s of the problems facing the communities, to help deepen the understanding of the roles and responsibilities of citizens, public authorities, private sector in working towards addressing the problems and moving towards a just society in just environment .
It is believed that the “Fellowship” strategy is in consonance with the emerging focus, direction and character of Svaraj as an organization/association of concerned individuals/professionals/intellectuals with a sense of calling to work alongside communities (that we work with) with knowledge and skills to enable them to manage their livelihoods/lives.
