The Ariane de Rothschild Fellows Program: Dialogue & Social Entrepreneurship aims to develop a network of social entrepreneurs with an interest in fostering a culture of mutual respect and dialogue among Jewish and Muslim communities. In a multi-layered approach, the program blends three educational components: an innovative and action-driven social entrepreneurship program; training in cross-cultural dialogue and leadership; and exposure to state-of-the-art scholarship.
This program will be a highly interactive and intensive. Prior to the program, the Fellows will complete a 360-degree assessment, which will provide valuable feedback toward understanding their role as an agent of change. Each Fellow will receive individual, private coaching to interpret the assessment results, and will then learn how to apply this information to achieve personal and professional goals.
Cambridge scholars will provide historical and cultural background to current affairs, with the support of dedicated course tutors.
Significant resources will be devoted to classroom dialogue and project work. The program will also encompass extracurricular cultural activites in New York City.
This two-week program is conducted in English and is delivered at Columbia Business School in collaboration with Cambridge University's Center for History and Economics and Woolf Institute - Center for Muslim-Jewish Relations.
Acceptance to the program is by application only. Selected Fellows will be invited to the program in New York City in July 2009, inclusive of travel, lodging and some meals.
Eligibility
Social entrepreneurs who have already created their organization and are engaged in the early stages of development (one to four years) and who are interested in fostering a culture of mutual respect and dialogue among Jewish and Muslim communities.
Eligible participants must reside in the US, UK, and/or France, or operate their venture from these countries.
In exceptional cases we will also consider individuals with an outstanding background in social activities even if they have not created a legal entity, per se.
