The Atlantic Fellows for Health Equity in South Africa program is about strengthening the capacities of progressive social change leaders to tackle the deep social and economic inequities that characterize South Africa and that impact on the health of its citizens. It creates a space for Fellows to connect action with a deeper understanding of the systemic causes of injustice; believing that an inclusive, equitable, economically productive and healthy society comes from action that addresses power and privilege, the unequal distribution of resources and opportunities, and equally challenges racism, classism, sexism and heteronormativity.
Our Fellows drive impact on some of the world’s most pressing inequities through their dedication, innovative thinking and pursuit of justice. By leveraging their diverse skills and experiences, our Fellows develop and implement transformative solutions to create lasting change in communities around the globe.
Atlantic Fellows are part of a wider ecosystem that encompasses the organizations they lead and the communities they serve. Together, they create a collective groundswell of action that changes narratives and redefines what is possible. The Fellowship community works in partnership with a broader group of stakeholders. The strength of these ecosystems comes from the intersection of thought leadership, creativity and passion; and hands-on work that translates intent into action and lasting change.
There are many ways to contribute to the positive change Atlantic Fellows is championing. As an individual, you can apply to one of our seven programs. Change is a lifelong mission, and there’s no better time to start than today.
Empowering catalytic communities of emerging leaders to advance fairer, healthier, more inclusive societies.
