Africa-Press – Liberia. <\/strong><\/span>Schmidt Futures, in partnership with The Rhodes Trust, announced the inaugural cohort of 100 Global Winners for Rise, a global initiative that finds brilliant people who need opportunity and supports them for life as they work to serve others. Rise is the anchor program of a broader $1 billion philanthropic commitment from Eric and Wendy Schmidt.The 100 Global Winners selected from tens of thousands of applicants speak more than 20 languages and hail from 42 countries, including Afghanistan, China, India, Kenya, Mexico, and the United States. SMART Liberia is a proud partner of Rise.<\/p>\n

\u201cSince the beginning, our work at Schmidt Futures has centered around betting early on exceptional people who are working to solve the world\u2019s toughest problems,\u201d said Eric Schmidt, co-founder of Schmidt Futures. \u201cIt is imperative that we equip a new generation of leaders with the support and resources to address the growing complexities of our world throughout their lives. Today\u2019s Rise Global Winners have offered us a glimpse into what brilliance looks like, and I am confident that our future is in very good hands.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe 100 young people we\u2019re introducing today are truly remarkable in what they\u2019ve brought to their communities even before graduating from high school,\u201d said Wendy Schmidt, co-founder of Schmidt Futures. \u201cWe\u2019ve seen in our philanthropy and in the world of technology how the power of the network multiplies the power of the individual. We are excited to be able to provide the Rise Global Winners lifelong support and a community of peers who will team up, share ideas, root for each other, and find solutions to global problems that can best be found in collaboration. Together, they will be positioned to help create a healthier, safer, and more humane world.\u201d<\/p>\n

Winners were selected after a rigorous application process which included peer and expert review of applicants\u2019 social change projects, formal assessments of brilliance, and group interviews with candidates from over 170 countries submitting their entries through a variety of platforms. The initial 100 Global Winners will lay the foundation for a global community of rising leaders who will receive access to benefits that last a lifetime as they work to serve others.<\/p>\n

The full list of winners can be found at www.risefortheworld.org\/global-winners. Rise worked with dozens of global partners\u2014from schools to businesses to local governments\u2014to identify talented young people in communities throughout the world, including SMART Liberia. This partnership will offer talented young people the benefits that last a lifetime, making this one of the largest award programs for individuals in the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs an organization dedicated to empowering the next generation of Liberian leaders, SMART Liberia is excited to partner with Schmidt Futures and The Rhodes Trust in searching for these remarkable group of young talented leaders who are committed to the service of others.\u201dsaid Mr. Dieudonne K. Perry, the Executive Director of SMART Liberia. \u201cNot only does this partnership align with our vision but it also makes it easier to scout and support these talented groups of young leaders.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rise Global Winner Benefits<\/b><\/p>\n

Benefits for Rise Global Winners take many shapes. The program is personalized and flexible, tailored to Global Winners\u2019 needs as they evolve over time. The program aims to provide Global Winners with individualized support to empower them to achieve their goals while they work to serve others throughout their lives.<\/p>\n

All Rise Global Winners receive access to the following benefits and participate in the following programs upon selection: In addition, all Rise Global Winners will have the opportunity to apply for the following benefits over their lifetime:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe answers to the world\u2019s toughest challenges already exist\u2014hidden inside the imagination of the world\u2019s brightest minds. But too often this potential goes undiscovered or unsupported,\u201d said Eric Braverman, CEO of Schmidt Futures. \u201cRise is the first program of this scale to build a network of extraordinary people, from diverse backgrounds worldwide, who have the potential to serve others together for life from a very young age. At Schmidt Futures we bet on exceptional people making the world better\u2014and Rise is our largest commitment yet to build the unending engine of talent that puts brilliance in the service of others, tackling hard problems in science and society.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are so excited to bring these brilliant young people together from across the globe and invest in their journeys to learn, lead, create, and make a difference,\u201d said Dr Elizabeth Kiss, Warden of Rhodes House in Oxford and Chief Executive of the Rhodes Trust. \u201cOur experience with the Rhodes Scholarships over more than a century tells us that when exceptional young people with different ideas, skills, perspectives and backgrounds come together in a shared spirit, they inspire each other to act in world-changing ways. We can\u2019t wait to see what the Rise Global Winners do next.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is an honor to introduce our first cohort of Global Winners, who have not just shown us their capabilities and potential, but also have shared with us their passion to make meaningful change across the world,\u201d said Wanjiru Kamau-Rutenberg, Executive Director of Rise. \u201cRecognizing that while brilliance is broadly distributed, opportunity is not, this year\u2019s cohort represents the bounty of the world\u2019s brilliance and we are honored to connect these emerging leaders to the opportunity they need to tackle some of humanity\u2019s most challenging and pressing problems.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rise Selection Process<\/b><\/p>\n

The application process for year one launched in November 2020, and called for talented people, ages 15 to 17, from around the world with the potential to use their talent to tackle the world\u2019s most pressing challenges. Rise received tens of thousands of applications from over 170 countries.<\/p>\n

The 8-month selection process was divided into distinct components, including peer reviews, expert reviews, live evaluations, and a review panel, which together formed a holistic view of the applicant. In addition to Rise\u2019s 100 Global Winners, 500 Finalists were also chosen and will participate in educational and leadership courses to develop skills, grow their networks, and gain access to additional funding opportunities allowing them to experiment with innovative ideas.<\/p>\n

Rise Challenge 2022<\/b><\/p>\n

Additionally, beginning today through December 22, 2021, young people ages 15 to 17 as of July 1, 2022 can apply for the 2022 Rise cohort. Applications are accepted through the \u201cHello World Network,\u201d a mobile application available in Google Play and the iOS App Store.<\/p>\n

Unlike many traditional applications, Rise uses videos, projects, and group interviews so applicants have multiple opportunities to showcase their potential. For applicants without access to mobile technology, Rise offers alternative pathways through web-browser and paper applications.<\/p>\n

The Rise Challenge has three stages. Applicants introduce themselves through videos, create an individual project that demonstrates their talents and benefits their communities, and peer review other applicants\u2019 projects, among other activities.<\/p>\n

After applicants complete the Rise Challenge, Rise selects up to 500 Finalists to advance to \u201cFinalist Days,\u201d where they demonstrate their motivations, problem-solving abilities, and teamwork skills in an innovative interview format.<\/p>\n

From the 500 Finalists, Rise selects 100 Global Winners to receive a lifetime of benefits as they work to serve others. For more information about how to apply, visit www.risefortheworld.org\/apply-to-rise.<\/p>\n
