Kamla Chowdhry Fellowships
The Anil Agarwal Green Centre (AAGC) offers students/young professionals the prestigious Kamla Chowdhry Fellowships to support their participation in, ‘Agenda for survival: A summer certificate course on policies, politics and practices of environmental management in India’.
Each fellowship is adjusted against the course fee.
Candidates are awarded these fellowships based on their performance in the entrance essays.
Preference is given to candidates from small towns and rural areas, and to those who aspire to pursue a career in environment and development.
The fellowship programme is supported by a generous endowment from the late Dr Kamla Chowdhry, who played a critical role in India’s environmental movement and deeply influenced international development efforts.
Dr Chowdhry helped establish many premier institutes of research and learning in India, including IIM-Ahmedabad, Institute of Rural Management, Anand, National Foundation of India, and the Society for the Promotion of Wastelands Development, among others.
A distinguished academic and an ardent Gandhian, Dr Chowdhry’s multifaceted interests spanned issues relating to forestry, ecology, environment, women’s rights and people’s participation.
