In 2020, ACYPL will design and implement two Professional Fellows Programs (PFP) around the theme of Governance and Society for 50 international participants from Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Timor Leste, and Vietnam. These two exchanges – one in the spring and one in the fall – include a week of political and policy discussions in Washington, DC, a month-long individual fellowship in an American office, and participation in a three-day global Professional Fellows Congress in Washington, DC. Select fellows will then welcome their American hosts to their home country for an 8-14 day program to execute follow-on activities based on what they learned in the US.
ACYPL designs and implements the PFP program around the theme of Governance and Society. Ideal candidates for the program are Southeast Asian young professionals between the ages of the 25-35 who work in the areas of: legislative process; governance; public administration; policy making; political campaigns/political parties; the legal field; journalism; non-governmental organizations; or the empowering of women, children, minorities, persons with disabilities, and marginalized populations.
The ACYPL Professional Fellows Program is part of the Young Southeast Asian Leaders Initiative (YSEALI). YSEALI is aimed at engaging promising young leaders, aged 18-35, from the ASEAN countries: Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Timor Leste, and Vietnam in developing and fostering innovative ideas for tackling what they have identified as their generation’s greatest challenges in the region.
