REACT GLOBE Fellowship 2026
Run a real-world system. Build your clarity. Lead global change.
REACT GLOBE Fellowship is a six-month, full-time international leadership residency hosted at Kumaraguru Institutions, Coimbatore, India, under the global initiative REACT — Real-world Engineering & Application for Collaborative Transformation.
It is not an internship or classroom course — it is a live-in, hands-on residency that places you inside the operating core of a working innovation ecosystem.
Between January and June 2026, fellows from around the world will join the REACT team in India to run, manage, and evolve one of the most forward-thinking education-innovation movements in the Global South.

Why GLOBE Is Unlike Any Other Fellowship
Most fellowships give you projects. REACT gives you systems — complex, living, and real.
Most fellowships offer exposure. REACT offers responsibility — and the space to lead within it.
Most fellowships study change. REACT engineers it — through innovation, policy, and collaboration.
The GLOBE Fellowship is built for those ready to operate at the frontier of education, enterprise, and governance. Fellows work within the REACT ecosystem — a global blend of think tank, innovation lab, and incubator — where ideas are tested against the realities of people, institutions, and impact.
You will:
- Engage directly with field, industrial, and policy environments where transformation is happening in real time.
- Translate complex systems into models, frameworks, and pathways that others can build upon.
- Collaborate across disciplines and sectors to address emerging global challenges.
- Lead initiatives that connect technology, sustainability, and human development in measurable ways.
GLOBE is distinguished by its depth of autonomy and breadth of engagement. It is designed for individuals who seek to build clarity through creation, lead through systems, and learn through responsibility.
Here, leadership is not assigned — it is earned through action, reflection, and result.
