Mosaic Taiwan is a fellowship
exchange program for emerging US leaders ages 20-35. The essence of this
program is to connect US future
leaders with their counterparts, cultivate lasting relationships and enhance
the comprehensive understanding of Taiwan. This program provides those US elites
with interest in global affairs with the opportunity to explore the beauty of Taiwan’s
natural environment, and to better understand its culture and society through
extensive exchanges with local leaders from various fields.
This program runs from June
15 to July 5, 2014. Fellows will take part in team-building and leadership
development exercises, as well as workshops and lectures on topics involving Taiwan.
There will also be visits to businesses and museums in various cities, as well
as indigenous reserves and sites of outstanding natural beauty around the
island. The program is made even more immersive through home stays and
community service activities. Fellows will also get to meet government
officials and young leaders in Taiwan to discuss issues of common
concern, with a focus on fostering cross-cultural connections and friendships.
Round-trip tickets, food, and lodging are all covered.
The program is only
open to US citizens aged 20-35. The numbers of the participants are limited and the review
process will be intensive. Those whose major or expertise are in the fields of political
science, law, business and finance, humanities and social science are
preferred. Applicants will be selected by Taiwan Economic and Cultural Offices in the U.S. and then
reviewed by Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Application deadline
is Feb 21, 2014. For further information and application guidelines visit: www.mosaictaiwan.net.
