Science Fuse Spring Fellowship 2026

Jadoo Nahin, Science Hai — Is Dafa Bahaar Mein 

Pakistan’s science education crisis goes beyond outdated textbooks and rote learning. It’s a crisis of access, imagination, and belonging. Too many children grow up believing science isn’t for them, that it belongs only to a few. The Science Fuse Spring Fellowship 2026 aims to change that.

About Science Fuse
Science Fuse is a social enterprise working across Pakistan and the UK to make science learning equitable, joyful, and locally relevant. We design hands-on STEM programs, teacher trainings, and public science experiences that build Science Sarmaya (Science Capital) in children and young people. With support from partners such as Malala Fund, Acumen, and the British Council, we’ve reached 97,000+ children, 980 teachers, and 450 young people across Pakistan.

About the Fellowship
The Science Fuse Spring Fellowship 2026 is a 5-week hybrid learning journey for passionate individuals aged 16+ who believe science should be accessible, inclusive, and joyful. Fellows come from diverse backgrounds, students, teachers, parents, and professionals, united by their jazba (passion), tajassus (curiosity), and a commitment to equity in STEM.

Led by Lalah Rukh, Founder & CEO of Science Fuse, along with the Science Fuse team, fellows will:

  • Train online and attend one in-person training day in Lahore, Karachi, or Islamabad (with online participation available on the same day)

  • Learn research-backed tools and frameworks including Science Sarmaya, UCL’s 3-STEP Approach to Equitable Makerspaces, and the Authentic Voice Framework

  • Facilitate a 1-hour Science Tamasha for children aged 7–12 in an underserved community

  • Reflect on their journey and share their learning as part of a collective showcase

What You’ll Gain

  • Training and mentorship from the Science Fuse team

  • A complete Science Tamasha toolkit (lesson plan + video)

  • Hands-on experience in science communication and facilitation

  • A digital certificate upon completion

  • Access to the Science Fuse Fellows Community (400+ changemakers)

Who Can Apply
Anyone aged 16 and above, no science background required. If you believe learning should be joyful and just, this fellowship is for you.

We don’t just want volunteers. We’re looking for fellows with heart, grit, and imagination, people who want to use science to help build a better, more just world.
