The Torchlight Collective is celebrating historic growth this year. We are thrilled to welcome our newest cohort of members: 13 experts from East Africa, South Asia, Western & Eastern Europe, and South America who are rolling up their sleeves to work on visionary projects in the fields of international development, human rights, and global health.
Torchlight uses the latest in human-centered design tools to create a recruitment and onboarding process that supports and grounds new members. More than that, our Collective fuels and harnesses members’ excitement.
But don’t take it from us, here are their experiences in Torchlight so far:
“I’m so excited to be a part of this journey, supporting something that’s growing sustainably in a way that’s not reactive.”
“Understanding Torchlight’s history, vision, and where we’re heading gives the Collective so much credibility. I’m looking forward to meeting with all the members and learning alongside them.”
“The Collective is doing such a commendable job. These internal systems are useful, detailed and at the same time take a very visionary approach. These are things I’ve never experienced in other large organizations.”
“The membership rates have helped me so much as a consultant from the Global South. For the first time in my career, I’m able to realize my value and ask for what I’m worth.”
