Frequently asked questions

Moral Ambition Fellowships are an opportunity to radically transform your career and be prepared to contribute at the highest level to urgent global issues. The fellowship is a seven-month program, including a one-month intensive training that sharpens you into an effective advocate for positive change, followed by a six-month placement at a leading NGO or think tank working in the field of Tobacco Control or Food Transition.

The topics of the inaugural fellowships are Tobacco Control and the Food Transition. These areas are critical to public health and sustainable living, and the fellowships focus on creating impactful change within these sectors.

The topics were chosen through an extensive research process using the Impact-Neglectedness-Tractability framework, supplemented by assessing whether a small cohort of talented individuals could make a significant impact. These topics were identified as both urgent and actionable, where focused efforts could lead to meaningful change.
