Fellowship Coaches
The HOPE Binational Fellows will have direct access to Peer Coaches and Communication Coaches during the duration of the program with the aim of advancing the Fellow's leadership capabilities and elevating their public profile. Peer Coaches will advise on developing impactful public policy, managing collaborations, working across barriers, and managing roles in public service. The HOPE Fellows will also be coached by communication experts on how to further develop their political and civic profile as part of their efforts to cultivate each Fellow's public service aspirations.
