The Empower Program for Social Entrepreneurship of the Institute for Global Leadership educates, mentors, and motivates aspiring social entrepreneurs at Tufts. Empower provides financial support to undergraduate and graduate students to gain practical skills through experiential learning in social entrepreneurship. Empower Fellowships provide the opportunity for students to launch social enterprises, participate in internships and conduct applied research related to social entrepreneurship in international or local community development. The fellowship offers either a grant or stipend for students to pursue these opportunities.
