The One Family Foundation is inviting applications for two Regional Engagement Fellow positions under the Government Council for Social Innovation (GCSI). The organization is seeking one fellow based in Asia and one fellow based in Latin America (LATAM) to support regional engagement, policy collaboration and social innovation initiatives. The fellowships provide an opportunity for professionals interested in social innovation, public policy, international development, regional research and partnership building to contribute to meaningful work across their respective regions. The available opportunities are: Regional Engagement Fellow – Asia Regional Engagement Fellow – Latin America (LATAM) The positions are full-time fellowships involving regional and remote engagement. Applicants for the Asia position should be based in the region, with candidates from South Asia and East Asia preferred. The LATAM Fellow should similarly be based in the Latin American region. The application deadline is 15 September 2026. About the Government Council for Social Innovation The two fellows will join work connected to the Government Council for Social Innovation (GCSI), supporting engagement with governments, policymakers, regional institutions, social innovators and wider ecosystem partners. The fellowships focus on strengthening connections and collaboration across regions while supporting efforts related to social innovation and policy engagement. Successful candidates will have the opportunity to work across different stakeholders and contribute to activities that encourage cross-country learning and the development of stronger regional networks. The roles may be particularly attractive to early- to mid-career professionals interested in understanding how governments, institutions, innovators and development actors can work together to address social challenges and create meaningful change. Regional Engagement Fellow – Asia One Family Foundation is seeking one Regional Engagement Fellow for Asia. The successful candidate should be based in Asia, with applicants from South Asia and East Asia preferred. The fellow will support regional engagement activities and work with relevant stakeholders, including governments, policymakers, regional institutions, social innovators and ecosystem partners. The position may involve research, stakeholder engagement, programme coordination and the development of strategies to strengthen collaboration across countries and institutions. For candidates interested in public policy and international development in Asia, the fellowship provides an opportunity to contribute to regional discussions and initiatives while building practical experience in engagement and partnership development. Regional Engagement Fellow – Latin America The second position is for a Regional Engagement Fellow – Latin America (LATAM). The successful candidate should be based in the Latin American region and will support engagement with relevant governments, policymakers, institutions and social innovation partners. As with the Asia position, the fellow will contribute to building relationships and strengthening collaboration across the regional social innovation ecosystem. The role may be especially relevant to candidates interested in how regional engagement, public policy, partnerships and innovation can support positive social change. Applicants should have an interest in working across different countries and stakeholder groups and should be able to contribute effectively to regional and cross-country initiatives. Key Areas of Work Both Regional Engagement Fellows will support a range of activities under the Government Council for Social Innovation. The key areas of work include: Government and policy engagement. Regional research and strategy. Partnership and ecosystem building. Programme coordination and support. Cross-country collaboration. Regional learning and knowledge sharing. Engagement with policymakers and institutions. Collaboration with social innovators. Relationship-building with ecosystem partners. The fellows will therefore have an opportunity to gain exposure to different aspects of regional and international engagement. Because the positions involve working with a range of stakeholders, successful candidates will need to be comfortable communicating and collaborating with individuals and organizations across different contexts. Who Should Apply? One Family Foundation is looking for candidates with a demonstrated interest in areas connected to social innovation, public policy, international development and regional engagement. The organization is also seeking applicants with strong: Research skills. Writing skills. Organizational skills. Communication abilities. Interest in partnership building.

Applicants should carefully review the full application information provided by One Family Foundation to determine the specific qualifications and experience required for each fellowship. Full-Time Fellowship With Regional and Remote Engagement The positions are described as full-time fellowship opportunities. The work involves both regional and remote engagement, allowing fellows to contribute to activities involving stakeholders and partners across their respective regions. This means successful applicants should be prepared to work in a dynamic environment involving cross-country communication, coordination and collaboration. The regional focus may also require fellows to understand or quickly develop knowledge of the policy, development and social innovation contexts affecting countries within their region.

Successful fellows can gain experience in: Government engagement. Public policy. Social innovation. International development. Regional research. Strategic thinking. Partnership development. Ecosystem building. Programme coordination. Cross-country collaboration. Stakeholder engagement. Knowledge sharing. For professionals interested in building a career focused on social impact, these areas can provide valuable experience and exposure to regional networks and institutions.
