Keeping Our Fellows Connected

Eight rounds of the M-POWER Fellowships Program have been awarded. We introduce the members of our Alumni network here, as well as identify their host organization and the subject of their proposed research.

Final reports prepared by M-POWER Fellows are stored in our Knowledge Bank.

Our Alumni network represents a significant contribution to the development of regional capacity and knowledge in the arena of water governance. This network of enthusiastic and skilled fellows is expected to grow and strengthen with subsequent application rounds.
