About the Fellows Program

Refugees International’s Refugee Fellows Program enriches and supports the advocacy efforts of refugee leaders around the world. This year-long fellowship equips fellows with the necessary tools and resources to amplify the perspectives of refugees and displaced individuals and drive meaningful change in their communities.

Fellows are formally affiliated with Refugees International and collaborate closely with our staff on various advocacy initiatives, including reports, opinion pieces, events, research trips, and direct engagement with policy makers. Additionally, fellows participate in peer-to-peer learning and formal and informal training sessions with advocacy and communications professionals.

Fellows Alumni Network

The Fellows Alumni Network is a dynamic community designed to sustain and deepen the connections formed during Refugee International’s Refugee Fellows Program. This network serves as a platform for our alumni to engage continuously with Refugees International’s mission and with one another. Our alumni benefit from ongoing opportunities, including access to advocacy and policy events, mentorship, and networking.
