Overview
The Aspen Institute’s Rodel Fellowships in Public Leadership convenes young elected officials to develop a more civil, less partisan, and more thoughtful approach to public governance and to change the ways in which political leaders relate to and work with each other. This grant will help expand beyond the core program with new pilot projects to determine what kinds of activities and programs are most valuable to the growing network of fellows and, for the first time, include activities for some staff.

Grants to this Grantee
for support of Opportunity to Learn principles in action
The Aspen Institute Education and Society Program works to improve public education by informing and influencing education leaders to take action on matters of education policy and practice. Building on the work of a bipartisan set of policymakers to develop Opportunity to Learn principles, Aspen will support policymakers in advancing an opportunity agenda and facilitating partnerships. This work advances the Education Program’s goal of ensuring that public education provides students with meaningful skills, knowledge, and mindsets by supporting the policies and leadership to ensure a rich vision for public education; creating learning environments for education leaders; and bringing together diverse stakeholders across race, gender, geography and political affiliation. (Strategy: K-12 Teaching and Learning)
