The programme is a year-long, paid, full-time professional development programme. Fellows participate fully in all organizational activities, working with experienced professionals in seeking practical solutions to population-related problems. This programme provides a challenging opportunity for 4-6 college graduates and graduate students each year to become an integral part of the Institute's staff and its commitment to achieve the worldwide availability of voluntary family planning. The FL programme allows recent college graduates from around the world to develop interpersonal, organizational, public relations, and writing skills while learning about current problems faced by nations around the world, including the U.S., as a result of overpopulation.
