Echoing Green, a global social venture fund based in New York City, has announced the recipients of its 2024 cohort of the Echoing Green Fellowship.

The 44 fellows work in 21 countries, making this final cohort the largest and most geographically diverse since the program was established through the Racial Equity Philanthropic Fund in 2020. Each fellow will receive $80,000 in unrestricted funding during the 18-month fellowship, one element of a multi-faceted support model that includes capital, capacity, and community support.

“From the planet’s hottest year yet, to a record number of armed conflicts, to global threats to democracy, to pullbacks on hard-fought progress on racial equity, these are challenging times. The immediacy with which we need bold solutions for these intractable issues is palpable, and these new fellows are meeting that urgency with a level of a brilliance, care, and passion that gives me renewed hope for our collective future,” said Echoing Green president Cheryl L. Dorsey. “When I think about the transformative work they’re leading across 21 countries, I marvel at the opportunity before them and the possibilities of what they can achieve for their communities and for the world.”
