The Atlantic Fellows for Social and Economic Equity seek to address the major global challenge of entrenched and growing inequality.
Inequality is not inevitable and a better, equitable world is possible. Equity can be achieved through bold, imaginative responses to unfair structures and systems, forged through collective action and aligned to values of fairness, care, and dignity.
The program is designed to critically engage fellows with global theories, practices, and contexts of social and economic inequality that will support them as social change leaders.
Atlantic Fellows are part of the next generation of practitioners and thinkers addressing the global challenge of inequalities.
