Become an International Youth Fellow

AKFC is searching for individuals who can demonstrate a commitment to international development, are driven by the desire to make a meaningful change in the world, and are ready to apply their skills and experience to a challenging overseas internship.

Aga Khan Foundation Canada is currently anticipating that the next round of the International Youth Fellowship program, commencing in June 2022, will involve travel and field placements in AKDN countries of operation in Africa and Asia. The decision on whether to send successful candidates overseas will be reviewed prior to the commencement of the program, with a final decision to be made based on public health guidelines in Canada and in the countries of placement.

This prestigious Fellowship is a launching pad for diverse careers in the government, non-profit, media and finance sectors. It offers a training program and an eight-month overseas placement to recent university graduates and young professionals under 30.
