Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights John Lewis Young Leaders (JLYL) Program 2024: ( Deadline 10 March, 2024)
The John Lewis Young Leaders (JLYL) program looks for highly motivated students who are interested in making a career out of organizing work. These students should be self-starters and not afraid to go against the grain. Students should be able to see themselves as human rights defenders and be impact-minded. Most importantly, we look for students who come from marginalized backgrounds and are most often targeted by systemic issues that do not afford them the opportunities and resources needed to become human rights advocates.
About Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights
