The Homo Faber Fellowship, a new education initiative for craft graduates and master artisans is a programme developed by the Michelangelo Foundation. The seven-month programme is designed for duos of master artisans and young talents to facilitate the transmission of skills and enable craft graduates to take the first steps towards a profession in the craft sector.

The fellowship is developed by the Michelangelo Foundation in partnership with Jaeger-LeCoultre and local members of the foundation’s international network together with the academic partner ESSEC Business School at the creative residency Atelier Joana Vasconcelos.

The Fellowship encompasses practical skills transmission, entrepreneurial learning and professional mentoring. 20 participants will be selected to take part in the first edition from September 2023 – March 2024, taking place in several European countries in partnership with local members of the international network of the Foundation.
