Fellowship Program
ECHORN hosts a fellowship program for young leaders who are interested in Caribbean population health and health equity. During this 18-month program, fellows receive specialized training through Yale University on facilitation, group dynamics, and leadership. They work closely with ECHORN members to support data collection, share findings, and strengthen resources within our network and the broader island communities. Our fellows have led initiatives examining data sharing among Caribbean institutions and designed webinar series examining the intersections of climate and health. They analyzed research findings, led sessions at network meetings, and helped develop data resources. Through these efforts, they grew as leaders and researchers dedicated to health equity.
