Our participants are executives and leaders of change from all sectors accelerating social impact initiatives in their environment. They are pioneers striving for new careers, business and social impact pathways in society. Every year Ashoka Fellows, current and future social entrepreneurs, highly motivated professionals from different sectors (corporate world, public sector, civil society/NGOs, foundations, and impact founders) come together in a cohort in one of the regional programs to start their transformational learning journey of 9 months.
