The One Planet Fellowship

Description

The One Planet Fellowship seeks to build a vibrant, highly connected, and inter-generational network of African and European scientists equipped to use a gender lens to help Africa’s smallholder farmers adapt to a changing climate. The first cohort of the One Planet Fellowship was launched in September 2019.

In the second cohort, the One Planet Fellowship initiative was extended to the North African Region, targeting emerging scientists from Morocco and Algeria. The second call, which closed on March 31, 2020, attracted 903 high potential scientists working on a wide range of agricultural topics.
