Tekano Fellowship for Health Equity 2025 — Leadership Development for Social Justice Changemakers in South Africa

Tekano is a leading South African organisation dedicated to advancing health equity and tackling systemic injustice. As one of seven global Atlantic Fellows programmes, it recognizes health as deeply political, aligning with the World Health Organization's definition of health as "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being," not merely the absence of disease, and understanding that health inequities stem from unjust policies, systems, and histories.
