Hi all, I urge some of you to apply. Below is the text copied from link: https://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/46104
Earlier this year, Creative Commons and the Open Policy Network <https://openpolicynetwork.org/> hosted the first Institute for Open Leadership (IOL). The IOL is a training and support program to empower new leaders interested in crafting and implementing an open licensing policy within their discipline. We had a diverse cohort <https://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/43566> of 14 fellows who came together for a week <https://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/44900> in January, 2015 in San Francisco. The fellows worked with mentors and each other to hone their open policy project ideas. Since then they’ve working within their institutions and fields to implement their open policy plan. Today we’re opening the application period for the next round of the institute. *IOL 2 will take place March 14-18, 2016 in Cape Town, South Africa.* Application instructions are on the Institute for Open Leadership webpage <https://openpolicynetwork.org/iol/>. *Applications are due October 30, 2015*. We will accept 15 IOL fellows. We encourage applications from a variety of areas, including the public sector, cultural heritage institutions, publishing, and scientific labs. We’re interested in individuals who are eager to become experts in open licensing, pursue new opportunities for open sharing of content and data, and directly influence policy decisions in their institution and field of work. Thanks again to the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation <http://www.hewlett.org/>and the Open Society Foundations <http://www.opensocietyfoundations.org/> for their support for the Institute for Open Leadership.
