InterGlobe Foundation, the philanthropic arm of InterGlobe Enterprises, has announced the fourth edition of its prestigious InterGlobe HERITAGE Fellowships. With applications now open, this year’s fellowship shines a spotlight on the 'intangible heritage' and 'craft traditions' that exist around India’s architectural landmarks, inviting researchers, journalists, architects, and creative professionals to explore and document stories that often go unseen.

Set against the backdrop of India’s built heritage, the 2025 edition encourages participants to view these sites not just as historical structures but as dynamic, living archives filled with rich narratives, rituals, and craftsmanship. Fellows will be selected through a jury process and will have the chance to document cultural elements such as community traditions, ritual practices, and artisan crafts, using formats ranging from essays and photo series to illustrations and other creative media. Depending on the scope, each fellowship will span three to six months.

Sharing her thoughts on the initiative, Rohini Bhatia, Chairperson of InterGlobe Foundation, said, “The fourth edition of the InterGlobe HERITAGE Fellowships builds on the success of our previous programs. The focus on intangible heritage and craft traditions is particularly exciting as it allows us to uncover and celebrate the cultural practices that breathe life into our built heritage.”

Launched in 2022, the Fellowship has evolved into a platform that brings forward unique, lesser-known facets of India’s cultural diversity. Past fellows have worked on themes such as Kashmir’s folk theatre and musical traditions, oral traditions around Uttarakhand’s Rudranath Temple, Varanasi’s Ghat Chhatris, and Telangana’s tribal Jatharas. Other noteworthy projects include the documentation of rare musical instruments like the Shreekhol, Taus, and Nafiri, and the cultural exploration of the Lonar Crater in Maharashtra.

Applications for the InterGlobe HERITAGE Fellowships 2025 will be accepted until August 24, 2025. To learn more about the eligibility and application process, interested individuals can visit: www.interglobe.com/the-interglobe-heritage-fellowships-2025.

Over the years, InterGlobe Foundation has led several impactful heritage projects—such as the conservation of Rahim Khan-I-Khanan’s mausoleum in Delhi, the restoration of Indra Kund stepwell in Delwara, and cultural mapping of 14 Indian cities. These efforts are a testament to the Foundation’s long-standing commitment to preserving and celebrating India’s diverse heritage.
