The GLC Alumni Network is launching an international virtual fellowship designed for grassroots leaders committed to active citizenship and building community power for social and environmental justice. To learn more about this opportunity, an online information session will take place on February 5th, 2026, at 4:00 pm CET.
During the session, the fellowship program will be presented in detail, including its goals, structure, and detailed calendar. Alumni from previous editions and program mentors will join the conversation to share their firsthand experiences, lessons learned, and the impact the fellowship has had on their work. Participants will also have the opportunity to ask questions and connect directly with the people behind the program.
Our 2026 virtual fellowship program expects to bring together 15 grassroots leaders from Albania, Bulgaria, Hungary, Romania, and Slovakia for cross-continental learning and reflection on community organizing practices between Central and Eastern Europe and the United States. The program includes online training sessions, praxis groups, and tailored pairing with a U.S.-based community organization and mentor, for a total of 25 hours.
