Why Join our Fellowship?
​
Real Industry Value, Not Just Certificates
What’s the point of doing all the work and investing in a fellowship if it doesn't meet industry standards? A majority of students studying International Relations and Policy Analysis end up without placements. At Geojuristoday, we aim to bridge this curriculum-to-career gap. Our strategically designed programme is focused on real-time experiences that impart true knowledge and skills essential for placements in leading institutions and offices.
Access an Exclusive Network Built Over Years
Our network includes Ministers, Members of Parliament, Political Leaders, Veteran Diplomats, and Decorated Military Officers. Unlike other organizations that offer limited interaction during Q&A sessions, we go a step further. We provide a comprehensive database and contact access to potential placement opportunities at their offices.
We Ensure Your Hard Work Gets the Right Reach
You work hard on research, burn the midnight oil—but who actually reads it? At Geojuristoday, your work reaches decision-makers—people who have the power to consider and even implement your ideas. We ensure your efforts are not lost in the noise.
We Don’t Just Talk—We Act
By organizing landmark events like Rakshamanthan 2025, Geojuristoday has become the only youth-led think tank capable of translating ideas into on-ground action, not just social media discussions.

Even if you're just someone interested in foreign policy, our experts and professionals are available 24x7 to review and provide feedback on your work—building real, independent analytical skills from day one.
We Don’t Follow the Crowd—We Shape Leaders
