Appointed by the EF president to three-year terms, members of this prestigious group are drawn from among the most accomplished Eisenhower Fellows from nearly 60 countries. These leaders among leaders represent the superb talent, rich diversity and unmatched reach of EF’s global network.

The Global Network Council meets annually in person, typically at EF conferences and other network and program events and convenes virtually three times a year. Working groups examine specific issues and provide recommendations for future EF programs, events and operations.

Global Network Council members help support Fellows’ projects of global and local impact and raise EF’s profile in every corner of the globe. They collect and disseminate personal and professional news about Fellows, help plan EF’s international conferences and identify and support fundraising opportunities. They strengthen the global Fellows’ network by sharing news of their work with other Fellows in their countries and regions, by actively engaging with EF’s country chapters and by participating in regional events.
