The Goldin Global Fellows brings together grassroots leaders from around the world to learn and work together as a Community of Practice, building on the talents of their neighbors and the assets of their communities to make real and lasting change around the world.

All applicants must be willing to commit up to five hours per week dedicated to the Fellows program. This time will include a weekly virtual meeting with your global peers, opportunities to test ideas in your local community and reviewing curriculum on the GATHER Platform.

1. English Proficiency: the course requires participants to have basic English language skills, enough to be able to communicate in real time with international peers.
2. Weekly Commitment: the fellowship will require participation in weekly meetings each Thursday at 9:00 AM – 10:30 AM CST plus an average of 5 hours per week of learning and practice at your own pace from March 20th — November 20th, 2025.
3. Desire to Learn Together: participants will join a network of peers who learn and work together in a global community of practice dedicated to community driven social change.
