It’s a proud moment for the HALI community as 10 students affiliated with HALI Access Network have been named RISE Global Winners! Selected from over 100,000 applicants, these students join a cohort of up to 100 young leaders from around the world, each committed to serving others through the RISE Challenge.

The HALI Access Network is proud to partner with Rise, an initiative of Schmidt Futures and the Rhodes Trust, which has provided incredible opportunities for young leaders to grow and make an impact. The RISE program invited 15- to 17-year-olds from around the world to participate in the RISE Challenge, where finalists were chosen based on their innovative ideas and community impact. As RISE Global Winners, our HALI students may gain benefits, including:

• A fully funded residential summit with other Global Winners.
• Scholarships for higher education, covering tuition and living expenses where needed.
• Competitive funding to bring their innovative ideas to life, addressing local or global challenges.
• Access to a powerful network of peers, mentors, and career development resources.
• A starter technology package to support their academic journey.
