Social Innovation Moonshot Fellowship

So you want to change the world? 

KLab is recruiting an intimate cohort of student changemakers who want to dive deeply into the world of social innovation and entrepreneurship. The program unleashes their talents as changemakers to ideate innovative solutions to solve some of the world’s most pressing problems. Moonshot Fellows will work with and be mentored by award-winning social entrepreneurs who are disruptors in the health, human rights, environmental and education sectors. Moonshot Fellows will be supported by our Social Innovation Mentors, and will work on projects that will have real world impact. In addition, they will have the opportunity to build their own social enterprise offering innovative products/services from the ground up. Through this unique mentorship, they will have the opportunity to apply for start-up funds, and be sponsored as an innovation intern with an award-winning social enterprise.
