Humanity in Action celebrated its 25th anniversary of Fellowship programs in 2024. To honor this significant milestone, we hosted a special virtual gathering for our alumni, designed to help them reconnect with their Fellowship cohort.
This first-ever network-wide virtual community gathering was an opportunity for Humanity in Action Fellows and Senior Fellows to reconnect with their fellow Fellows and learn where they were at in their lives. The reunion kicked off with a community-wide gathering where participants met with Senior Fellows across all years, followed by smaller breakout spaces with Senior Fellows from their own program or program country.
When:
- September 10, 2024 from 12:00-1:30pm ET / 6:00-7:30pm CET (Humanity in Action Fellowship alumni) and
- September 26, 2024 from 12:00-1:30pm ET / 6:00-7:30pm CET (Professional Fellowship alumni, Diplomacy & Diversity Fellowship alumni, Landecker Democracy Fellowship alumni)
What:
- Community-focused Upd
ates, Announcements, and Opportunities: Attendees learned about recent initiatives and developments for the Senior Fellows community. - Community Networking Time: Fellows from all years came together to connect and discover the latest updates from Humanity in Action.
- Individual Cohort Reconnection Time: Fellows had the chance to reconnect with their cohort members and catch up on each other’s journeys.
