Each year, a mindfully curated cohort of 20 social impact leaders connects hearts, hands and minds to unpack and refine their projects, tap into their collective leadership, and ignite transformative change in their communities while advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Throughout the 8-month program, participants generate ripples of impact: on themselves, by building their leadership capacity and transformative potential; on their local community, by accelerating their social impact project for sustainable development beyond business as usual; and on their global peers, by sharing and integrating their know-how, experience, and humanity.
After completing the program successfully, participants become part of our lifelong, supported network of Melton Foundation Senior Fellows — over 650 high-impact individuals connected worldwide who are leading and shaping conversations on everything from AI and climate action to human rights and social equity.
Calling SDG practitioners worldwide

The Global Solvers Accelerator creates that space for emerging change agents to converge in genuine collaboration that impacts their own projects while contributing to those of others. By embracing transformation as an impetus for sustainable development beyond business-as-usual, our 8-month program accelerates social impact projects through cross-boundary exchange and collaborative action. Participants gain access to fresh perspectives, personalized support, practical tools, and a global network of peers and experts.
Chosen from hundreds of applicants worldwide, selected participants will work together to refine and grow the social impact projects they are spearheading in their respective communities. Through an intentionally designed learning journey, subject matter advisory, leading-edge thematic contributions, and ample peer exchange and cross-cultural collaboration, the program provides a powerful springboard for participants to activate the fullest transformative potential of their sustainable development endeavors!

As a signature program of the Melton Foundation, the Global Solvers Accelerator connects directly to our vibrant global citizenship community. For successful participants, it serves as a gateway into the lifelong Melton Fellowship, a network of impact-driven changemakers worldwide.
In addition, actively engaged participants are invited to a fully sponsored, week-long in-person Meet-Up: the Global Solvers Co-Lab. Happening in July 2026, in Accra, Ghana, the Co-Lab is the vital in-person element of the program.
