Programs
Babel Institute provides resources that support young people who are often excluded from higher education and policy debates.
The Emerging Leaders Program connects high school juniors and seniors from low-income communities in the United States with mentorship and resources to help them succeed in higher education and become agents of change in their communities. Students take part in bi-weekly workshops on college admissions, scholarships, career planning, and leadership development.
The Babel Scholars Program provides 100% tuition assistance to selected university students in Africa. Scholars are placed in the Africa Studies program, where they conduct original research, receive mentorship, and participate in policy roundtables.
Support our growth
Donations cover the cost of pairing high school students with mentors, running workshops that prepare them for college and careers, and supporting their capstone projects on community policy issues. They also fund tuition for college students in Africa and embed those scholars in our Africa Studies program, where they publish research and join policy debates. Every dollar goes directly to making these opportunities possible.
