The Echidna Global Scholars Program’s Visiting Fellowship is hosted by the Center for Universal Education (CUE), within the Global Economy and Development program, at the Brookings Institution in Washington, DC.
The Echidna Global Scholars Program (the Program) aims to strengthen the capacity of local leaders to advance gender equality in and through education across the Global South. During a six-month Fellowship at Brookings, Scholars conduct individual research focused on improving learning opportunities and life outcomes for girls, young women, and gender non-conforming people, develop their leadership and evidence-based policy skills, build substantive knowledge on gender and global education issues, and expand their pathways for impact. Upon completion of the fellowship, scholars transition to the Echidna Global Scholars Alumni Network, a growing community of practice aimed at promoting their significant, sustained, and collective influence on gender-transformative education globally, regionally and locally.
Since its inception in 2012, the Echidna Global Scholars Program has hosted twelve cohorts of fellows and supports an alumni network. The Fellowship consists of two phases:
- Pre-residency: sets the basis for the research training, leadership, and strategic impact components of the program. With the support of CUE fellows, scholars begin an intensive period of in-country data collection and analysis, accompanied by a series of virtual workshops, group working meetings, and individual advisory sessions. Scholars are introduced to the leadership concepts and tools that will be the focus of the leadership development program throughout the Fellowship and begin developing their impact strategy, identifying and engaging with local stakeholders. Time commitment is roughly 15-20 hours a week during this phase.
- Residency: the residency period in Washington, DC focuses primarily on expanding Scholars’ reach and impact through publication and dissemination of scholars’ research on Brookings’s multimedia platforms, strategic impact capacity building, leadership development, and networking. The residency phase is designed to help scholars amplify their impact by strengthening skills and practices for analyzing, communicating, and leveraging research for policy contexts and key audiences, as well as expanding scholars’ networks and promoting visibility through Brookings convenings and strategic collaborations, culminating in the Gender Equality in and through Education Research and Policy Symposium.
In addition, during the two-year period following residency, the CUE team provides targeted support to alumni as they implement action plans in their home countries. Through impact planning, strategic advisement and leadership development work, CUE aims to enable scholars to leverage the knowledge, skills, and connections built throughout the Fellowship to catalyze change in their contexts.
About the Center for Universal Education:
As part of the Global Economy and Development program at the Brookings Institution, the Center for Universal Education develops and disseminates effective solutions for quality education and skills development. It offers a forum for research, high-level dialogue, and public debate on a range of issues relevant to education, with a particular focus on the Global South. CUE envisions a world where all children and youth have the holistic skills they need to succeed in the 21st century and plays a critical role in influencing the development of policy related to global education, promoting actionable strategies for governments, civil society and private enterprise.
The Echidna Global Scholars Program is part of CUE’s broader efforts to catalyze and sustain collaborative action to achieve quality education for all, seeking to build the evidence base on policies and practices supporting gender equality in and through education in countries throughout the Global South. Given the Echidna Global Scholars’ understanding of the complex dynamics within their own communities, they are often best suited to craft strategies and solutions that address context-specific barriers and engage local decision-makers to transform systems for long-term change. To that end, the research and impact plans of the Echidna Global Scholars contribute to an important process of evidence-based policy development. Moreover, the capacity and professional development they undergo during the Fellowship helps to strengthen a leadership pipeline for education leaders around the world.
