About the Institute
Dedicated to the pursuit of what is possible
The Bergel Institute examines research and developments in health and technology while working daily to effect change in areas such as poverty, human trafficking, and human enslavement. The failure of collective efforts to eradicate these issues over generations motivates the Institute to work with pressing urgency and to build partnerships across the globe.
Fellowships
A year of intensive study and active mentorship
The Institute supports one-year Fellowships for individuals of all ages who wish to pursue intensive study across our six focus areas. The Institute serves as an incubator for Fellows to prepare their work for future growth. Upon completion, Fellows are required to serve as mentors for future Fellows.
Action Guide
From research to real change
The founders of The Bergel Institute bring decades of experience working on poverty at the grassroots level and in research and policy analysis. The Action Guide aims to share what leads directly to people in your community rising out of poverty on a permanent basis.
