Who we are
The fellows & friends programme is an initiative for fellows and friends of the Hertie Foundation. Our circle includes current and former students, grantees and researchers of the Foundation and its projects.
Information exchange and networking
The online forum is the platform for all 5200 Hertie fellows to exchange information with each other, across the whole foundation and all its programmes. It offers its members innovative think-tanks, expert forums, interesting professional perspectives and much more.
On 27 June 2020 the kick-off meeting for our mentoring programme took place. In the programme we match mentors and mentees and help our cohorts with different support offers. In four interviews we asked former mentors and mentees how they experienced the programme and what lessons and experiences they carry into the future.
In "Fellows in Portrait" you will find new interviews with our coordinators of our networks and programmes. Here we introduce, among others, Andreas Schröder (Hertie Energy and Environment Network), who as coordinator of the network organizes workshops and group activities. He now works for the International Energy Agency in Paris, combining professional life and commitment as a Hertie Fellow.
