Nominate a Young Canadian Leader
Action Canada is seeking the nomination of exceptional young Canadian leaders in their post-secondary or early career years to participate in our annual fellowship program.
Up to 20 nominees will receive a $20,000 Action Canada fellowship to participate in a 10-month program focused on leadership development. Fellows will work together on public policy projects of significance to Canada and attend week-long, working conferences in Vancouver, Ottawa and a third Canadian location. Fellows are expected to undertake their fellowship in conjunction with their studies or other work in which they are already engaged.
The 2007/08 fellowship year theme is Canada as a World Leader, focusing particularly on enhancing our leadership roles and profile, developing partnerships to increase our impact in world affairs, and strengthening our global relations from political and trade perspectives.
A national organization based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Action Canada is a partnership between the private sector and the federal government that is committed to building leadership for Canada’s future.
