BECOMING A FELLOW

Looking to be part of the collective mission of ending education inequity in Uganda?


Through our 2-year Fellowship, we recruit and train Uganda’s top university graduates and young professionals from all academic backgrounds (apart from Education) into full-time teacher-leaders and place them in high-need rural and underserved government schools to drastically improve the learning and life outcomes of children in far-flung communities. Note that graduates of Education only qualify if they are teaching in government schools and on the government payroll in our target district, Mukono.
