Fairer Health for All Fellowships
The Fairer Health for All Fellowship Programme is designed as a comprehensive, in-depth learning and development opportunity for people from a wide range of backgrounds, including clinical and managerial staff and people working in the VCSE sector. Bringing together representatives from across a diverse range of organisations and professionals that influence population health and wellbeing, we hope to attract an applicant pool that mirrors the communities we serve.
Aims of the Fellowship
The aims of the fellowship are to:
a. Establish and nurture learner understanding of your professional role and opportunities to create Fairer Health for All
b. Educate learners on the policy and strategy context in Greater Manchester and identify the skills needed to successfully manage change in complex health and care and community settings
c. Refine learner understanding of the social and commercial determinants of health and the importance of health equity, equality and inclusion
What does it involve?
The fellowship will be centred around a core project identified by the fellow and the employer/host VCSE organisation and refined through support with a mentor and a community of practice. Fellows will experience a mixture of blended and experiential learning, covering a wide range of population health, equality and inclusion and sustainability themes. The fellow will be required to capture their learnings during the year in an evidence-based project report, submitted toward the end of the fellowship for publication on the Fairer Health for All website.
What can fellows expect to gain?
• Knowledge and skills in public health, relevant to your specialist area
• Access to communities of practice and learning networks
• Mentor support to implement a change process and convert theory into action
• Improved level of personal and professional leadership practice
• Increased resilience and ability to react to the challenges of rapidly changing contexts
• Ability to triangulate themes from across health and social care, academia, and the voluntary sector
