The now over 400 Senior Fellows span all ages, specializations, and locations. Through grants and their own contributions of time, expertise, and financial resources, Senior Fellows actively sustain our network and advance our mission.

Senior Fellow Workshops

The Melton Foundation currently sponsors two face-to-face workshops for Senior Fellows in diverse regions of the world. These provide opportunities for Fellows to stay connected while they learn the leadership and advocacy skills needed to further our mission.

Mentors and Project Leaders

Senior Fellows are trained and supported to lead global citizenship project teams and learning activities involving Junior Fellows, other Senior Fellows, and collaborators. Senior Fellows also initiate and carry out projects and events – from organizing and curating TEDx events to implementing global education outreach in rural schools and fundraising events.

Network Leadership

Senior Fellows are activity involved in the leadership of the Foundation, including by sitting on its Board of Directors and serving in high-profile volunteer roles and staff positions. Increasingly many Senior Fellows also contribute financial resources to the Foundation’s programs.
