Welcome Home Alum!
This page brings together the people who have shaped the Millennium Fellowship story across cohorts, campuses, and countries. From the earliest fellows to the most recent class of 2025, it reflects a shared journey of leadership, service, and commitment to advancing the Sustainable Development Goals. As you explore, you will see the collective impact of a global community bound by purpose, learning, and the belief that meaningful change begins with us.
Here is how you can get Involved
Global Admissions commitee (GAC)
The GAC is responsible for running the Millennium Fellowship admissions process worldwide. GAC Members review applications, ensure consistent selection standards across campuses, conduct interviews, and select Campus Directors who lead the program at their institutions.
MCN STories
MCN Stories is a storytelling initiative that spotlights the social impact journeys of Millennium Fellowship alumni. Launched through the Class of 2024 Career Accelerator Program, it invites alumni to share short video reflections on their work and growth. In June 2025, we hosted the first-ever MCN Stories: Screening & Awards, recognizing four outstanding alumni-led projects.
Alumni Communities
The Alumni Network offers diverse volunteer opportunities that enable members to meaningfully shape and strengthen the community. Alumni may moderate the LinkedIn group, curate newsletter content, support outreach, lead regional hubs, or help plan and facilitate events and programming.
Class of 2024 Career Accelerator Program
Launched in early 2025 with support from the Coach Foundation, the MCN Career Accelerator was created to support alumni as they navigate the transition from impact learning to early career pathways. The program was designed in response to clear feedback from Millennium Fellows seeking practical professional development, career guidance, stronger networks, and clearer pathways to funding and further education.
Through workshops, networking sessions, one-on-one coaching, and shared resources, the Career Accelerator has connected more than 4,500 alumni across 48 countries with tailored career support. Rooted in empathy and community, the program brings together practical tools and lived experience to help alumni grow, explore opportunities, and apply their skills in the workforce and social impact spaces.

Projects Launched Through the Career Accelerator
Agri-Tech Innovation: Offline Swarm Detector & Startup
An Agri-Tech innovation developed in response to challenges faced by local beekeepers, leading to the creation of the first offline Swarm Detector device in the author’s university and country. The project emerged directly from the Career Accelerator’s Design Thinking training and focuses on delivering practical, affordable solutions for agricultural communities. This innovation went on to inform the launch of an Agri-Tech startup, which has created opportunities for five youths in the local community and is being positioned for scale through partnerships and funding opportunities.
