The Fellowship has supported 78 education leaders across 40 countries to date. At the end of 2024, their work had already reached almost 5 million students and teachers through digital education solutions. This is set to rise dramatically in the years ahead. Initial participating leaders report being more likely to use evidence when designing solutions and policy. They also report increased confidence leading change with diverse stakeholder groups.

Dr Iwan Syahril , former Director General, Ministry of Education, Culture, Research and Technology, Indonesia , said: "This Fellowship is unique and timely. Right now, all countries want to make the best use of education technology to transform their systems."

The 'HP Cambridge Partnership for Education EdTech Fellowship' equips education leaders to drive innovative technology solutions through a five-month hybrid study programme and lasting alumni network. Including a residential week at Cambridge , this initiative supports Fellows to tackle challenges in their unique contexts, including connectivity limitations and resource constraints. Areas Fellows focus on include:

Steve King , Head of Education Reform, Partnership for Education, Cambridge University Press & Assessment, said: "The Fellowship creates connections across continents while acknowledging that each nation's path is unique. Latin American leaders are driving impactful change, and I'm delighted to invite them to join us."

Mayank Dhingra , Global Director – Education Strategy, HP, said: "We are excited to extend the EdTech Fellowship to Latin America , where dynamic educational landscapes present both unique challenges and extraordinary opportunities. By welcoming innovative leaders from this diverse area, we're strengthening our global network of changemakers who harness technology to transform teaching and learning."
