Capacity Building

Public Health Research Fellowship 2023

Public Health Research Fellowship 2023
We have identified a crucial need for medical and public health professional who wants to upgrade their skills particularly in public health research domain such as technical writing, data analysis, research aptitude and advocacy domain.

Who can learn with us?
This program is a learning opportunity of six months which aims to provide an opportunity to early career ‘public health professionals’ with an experience less than 7 years and to

‘mid-level professionals’ with an experience of 8-15 years.

Why PHRF?
Our program is unique as we focus on building the capacity of our fellows in research, one health, health communications, advocacy, and other allied areas. They are also getting chance on regular basis to interact closely with our team of experts. Through our fellowship program, we are providing talented and motivated medical and public health professionals with hands-on training (on research design, implementation), mentorship, and support throughout the process. In addition, the public health professionals through this fellowship programme can inculcate skills that can facilitate their skills in promoting primary health care. By empowering our fellows in writing policy briefs, technical manuscripts, systematic reviews, conducting complex data analysis and enhancing their skills in health communications while focusing on social behaviour change communication (SBCC) to bring positive impact on the vulnerable communities, we are helping them to enrich their experience in complex verticals of public health issues.

Profile of our fellows this year

Our fellows work profile encompasses a range of areas such as maternal and child health, health

system, immunization, child protection, food diversity and nutrition, non-communicable diseases,

education, infectious disease control, chronic disease prevention, health policy, and social injustice.

They belong to various demographic regions bringing in cultural and regional diversity to localise the

health interventions and multiple aspects in the public health sector.

The current batch of PHRF program is inclusive of all genders showcasing the need of accommodation of multiple stakeholders coming together. This initiative is a building block to promote the participation of sensitised and empathetic individuals in the health system to work as community for public good.

FPHS Internships

Through the Public Health Internship Program, FPHS provided young minds with a platform to implement their new ideas on the ground as well as while conducting research at their desks. This internship enabled them to gain practical experience, build networks, and bring a fresh perspective to the field of public health. During the year, a cohort of 15 interns worked with FPHS across areas of public health research, advocacy, data collation, knowledge management and community engagement initiatives.
