Meet the Partnership

Civic Influencer Fellowship Program

Our Civic Influencer Fellowship Program empowers young people aged 16-24 who are directly impacted by these challenges. By training, mentoring, and resourcing these young individuals, we transform them into effective civic leaders and decision-makers.

At the heart of this is a year-long fellowship that supports these young individuals to:

  • Understand the Region: They gain a deep understanding of regional challenges and the decision-making landscape.
  • Take Action: They engage in HIPs, lead policy and advocacy activities, and mobilize their communities for change.
  • Build Competencies: They develop crucial leadership skills, supported by mentors and navigators trained with evidence-backed models.
