Global Community—Our Global Community continues to grow to 1,500+ leaders from 115+ countries!

These 55 Scholars hail from Pakistan and will participate in the “Pakistan Emerging Leadership Development Institute,” which is a part of a collaboration with two Atlas Corps Alumni–led organizations, Accountability Lab Pakistan and CaterpillHERS.

This dynamic group of 5 emerging professionals from Cuba, Egypt, Nigeria, and Zimbabwe will be working at U.S. based organizations, such as with my former colleagues at Save the Children.
