","text":"All expenses are covered and you'll receive a stipend for personal costs. This is not a salary – if you need to maintain full income during this period, the fellowship may not be feasible. If cost is a genuine barrier, flag this in your application; we may be able to offer supplementary grants on a case-by-case basis.","id":"69c6b7375f63150018604592"},{"title":"Do I need to speak Polish? ","text":"No. The fellowship will be conducted entirely in English.","id":"69c6b7375f63150018604593"},{"title":"What happens after the fellowship? ","text":"Some fellows may be offered a position at Anima International. However, being a fellow doesn't guarantee a job after the program. But you will leave with skills, knowledge, and a network that will make you a stronger candidate — whether at Anima or elsewhere in the movement. ","id":"69c6b7375f63150018604594"},{"title":"Is this only for people who want to work at Anima International? ","text":"It's primarily for people who could see themselves working at Anima or similar organizations. If you're confident you don't want to work in professional animal advocacy, this isn't the right program.","id":"69c6b7375f63150018604595"},{"title":"I'm not vegan or vegetarian – can I still apply? ","text":"Yes. We care about your capacity to contribute to reducing animal suffering effectively, not your personal dietary choices. While all meals during the fellowship will be plant-based, we are open to anyone who wants to fight for a world free from animal suffering.\n","id":"69c6b7375f63150018604596"},{"title":"What if I need a visa? ","text":"We'll provide invitation letters and cover expenses if needed. Please flag visa requirements early in the application process so we can begin supporting you promptly.","id":"69c6b7375f63150018604597"},{"title":"This is a pilot – what does that mean? ","text":"This is the first time we're running this program. We're experimenting with format, content, and structure. Things may be imperfect. We'll be transparent about what's working and what isn't, and we expect fellows to be equally honest with us. If you're the kind of person who finds that exciting rather than unsettling, you're probably a good fit.","id":"69c6b7375f63150018604598"},{"title":"How is this different from other fellowships or programs? ","text":"Most advocacy training programs focus on either skill-building or networking.
