Congratulations to EngAGE CEO/Founder Tim Carpenter, one of 21 new Encore Public Voices Fellows, selected from more than 225 applicants!
Three years ago, Encore.org teamed up with The OpEd Project and Encore.org Senior Advisor Ann MacDougall to create the Encore Public Voices Fellowship. The Fellowship is part of The OpEd Project’s national Public Voices initiative to change who writes history. And it’s part of Encore.org’s work to diversify and amplify voices at the four-way intersection of aging, longevity, intergenerational connection and social justice.
Many work on racial justice issues. Others speak out against ageism, ableism, exclusion, inequity and social isolation. Some speak through art and film, using cultural and faith approaches to storytelling and activism.
Most important, all are bridging divides. All speak out for a more just and inclusive world. All have the courage of their convictions. Learn about them here.
