We’re looking for a stellar Evaluation, Learning, and Communications Fellow to join our team for summer 2020 (and possibly beyond)!

About Us

Root Change is a development laboratory, testing new ideas and leveraging learning to advocate for far-reaching change within the development sector. We believe that traditional approaches to development have failed to address the systemic causes of poverty, injustice, and vulnerability in the world. That is why we design programs, technologies, and interactive experiences that help people, organizations, and communities build better futures for themselves. Our daily work is focused on putting more power in the hands of local actors, developing the capacity of systems—made up of civil society, government, and citizens—to work together more effectively, and creating adaptive approaches that are responsive to ever-changing environments. 

Most recently, our work has supported:

• Community problem solving through Social Labs in Malawi;

• Investment in families and peer-learning in Colombia;

• Collective approaches to advocacy in Nigeria;

• Locally-led program experimentation in the Philippines; and

• Social network analysis of youth employment opportunities in Kenya.

We’re looking for a 2020 Summer Fellow to join the Root Change team in the development revolution!
