Your mission
The project you would be working on at The DO School Fellowships is beVisioneers - a global environmental entrepreneurship Fellowship, that spans a 3-year hybrid-learning program, equipping innovators aged 16 to 28 with the training, expert support and resources to bring their planet-positive projects to life.
