So excited to see our 1st cohort!

We can't wait to meet these amazing fellows in Detroit next week!

Focused on ethical and inclusive leadership, CEE partners, fellows, and hosts are learning how to effectively collaborate with U.S. counterparts on the most pressing local challenges. #CEEOrientation #CEEProgram #CEE2022

We can’t wait to see what they’ll do next! CEE Orientation may be over but CEE Fellows’ journey in the United States has just begun. Over the next 3 months, Fellows will build their capacities as leaders and work directly on local initiatives. #CEEOrientation #CEEProgram #CEE2022

Where in the U.S. are CEE Fellows? CEE Fellows have officially begun their U.S. Practicums in 51 cities across 23 states. Over the next three months, we can’t wait to see the incredible partnerships formed, communities strengthened, and civil society initiatives expanded!
