Subject: Project Pengyou fellowships
***********************************************************

We are now accepting applications for the Project Pengyou Leadership
Fellows Program <http://projectpengyou.org/leadership-fellow/> to be held
on March 20-23. All US citizens who have lived or studied in China are
eligible to apply. Fellows will be invited to participate in an exclusive
Leadership Summit at Harvard University and receive intensive training on
community organizing and cross-cultural leadership for the US-China
context.

During the four day summit, participants will be taught to develop
compelling narratives based on their own China experiences, gain strategic
skills to mobilize people and resources in their communities, and develop
their capacity as US-China leaders. Our long-term goal for this program is
to build a robust community of next generation leaders committed to China
study and exchange and mobilize them to set up Project Pengyou chapters
across the country that will also serve to strengthen the awareness and
viability of China study programs in their community.

For all successful applicants, we will cover lodging, food and training
costs at Harvard. A number of travel stipends will also be provided.  We
are especially targeting fellows from under-privileged and
under-represented regions (south and midwest), but in general we're
looking for exceptional alumni who are passionate about their China study
experience, are interested to serve as a leader in their community and
strengthen their engagement with China.

Details about the Leadership Fellows program and application process are
online here <http://projectpengyou.org/leadership-fellow/> and also
detailed below. The deadline for applications isFebruary 23, 2014.

Thank you and I wish you a wonderful Year of the Horse!

Very Best,

Holly Chang
