Programs

One flagship program, pursued with conviction

The Center concentrates its effort on a small number of programs done well. Each is a form of political and civic leadership formation — forming leaders, building legitimate institutions, and setting a public standard — nonpartisan in method, never partisan or electoral work.

Flagship Program

The Inaugural Nigeria Program

The Center's inaugural cohort, formed in Nigeria: emerging Nigerian leaders paired with diaspora technical capacity to work on real problems of governance and public trust. Its two tracks — and how fellows are identified and formed — are detailed in the Fellowship.

About the Fellowship

Civic Technology

Digital Trust & Civic Technology Lab

Applied work on the infrastructure of public trust: transparent data practices, verifiable public information, and tools that help citizens hold institutions to account. The Lab supports fellows with method, mentorship, and shared technical resources.

Public Standard

The Accountability Compact

A public standard of conduct, competence, transparency, and commitment to human dignity that fellows and the Center hold themselves to. The Compact makes the Center's expectations legible to partners, funders, and the public.
