The question is not: What is a Fellow? The question is: Are you a Fellow?

Fellows are the reason why we are here. In principle everyone between 18 and 28 can become a Fellow.

And even the reasons why young individuals apply to become a Fellow are manifold. Some are interested in becoming a Fellow because they will have the chance to do something they have dreamed of their entire life. Others don’t really know what to do and are hoping to get inspired and benefit from the encounters and experiences. Some applying to become Fellows have had a long education and apply for a project in their specific field of interest. Others apply for an experience in a field that they would not normally aim to get involved in.

What unites all is that they are seekers, curious about new experiences, new friends and new ideas. Future Fellows aim to get inspired, hope to get encouraged and are motivated to get involved with her/his Friend and the team. Fellows can be from very different backgrounds and cultures – but they are united by their motivation to make their time at D&F a uniquely rich and inspiring one.
