TFT fellowship program recruits, trains, and supports talented graduates and professionals to teach in high-need schools for 2 years, and prepares them to be lifelong leaders dedicated to educational equity for Taiwan. TFT also seeks to build a network and pass on paradigms whereby the alumni (finished two-year program) and supporters are able to navigate their career path by making a long-term impact and drive a nationwide movement to solve the educational inequality problem. TFT believes that each child should have equal rights and opportunity to realize his or her full potential, and that education should not be compromised by solvable problems. To this end, TFT has been working with schools, communities, like-minded organizations, businesses, and government to drive a nationwide movement. The systemic change TFT envisions not only entails success for children from all backgrounds, but also the collective consciousness of society advocating for a world with educational equity.
