Senior Fellow, Inclusive Capitalism

About the Opportunity 

The Clinton Foundation, in partnership with ERANDA and the Council for Inclusive Capitalism, have established the Sir Evelyn de Rothschild Fellowship for Inclusive Capitalism at the Clinton Foundation to honor the legacy of Sir Evelyn and continue his vision through the ongoing work of the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI). Sir Evelyn was passionate about changing people’s lives by giving funds and mentorships that enabled individuals to develop their skills and credentials through study or work in areas that enhance the common good.

The Sir Evelyn de Rothschild Senior Fellow’s scope of work will include research into inclusive economic policies, trends and developments and working to drive action on proposed outcomes and impact through partnership development, Commitments to Action (new, specific, and measurable projects facilitated through cross-sectoral partnership), recruitment of additional private sector and other key stakeholders with resources who will be additive to the development and success of the work and recommendations, and connecting others who are already working in the identified space(s) to share learnings and best practices around effective and inclusive business practices, government policies and other activities and interventions geared towards this effort.

The Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) convenes global and emerging leaders to create and implement solutions to the world’s most pressing challenges. CGI works with partners to drive action through its unique model. Rather than directly implementing projects, CGI facilitates action by helping members connect, collaborate, and develop connections, partnerships and Commitments to Action — new, specific, and measurable plans that address global challenges.
