Applications are now open for the AFAA 2026 Mentorship Program, a six-month initiative designed to strengthen professional connections, foster leadership capability, and support lifelong learning within the Fulbright alumni community.

The Mentorship Program brings together Fulbright alumni from diverse disciplines, sectors, and career stages to participate in meaningful, one-to-one mentoring relationships. The program provides a structured framework supported by guidance materials and resources, enabling both mentors and mentees to gain value from shared experience, knowledge exchange, and professional reflection.
