In terms of the resident profiles, the following criteria may help to provide some greater clarity:
- Well-established and highly accomplished academics whose work is aligned with or may inform the discourse around the Rockefeller Foundation’s goals to build resilience and more inclusive economies. Those working on projects that relate to our focus areas are also highly encouraged (Transform Cities, Secure Livelihoods, Revalue Ecosystems and Advance Health).
- Academics who are at an inflection point in their work—they may be ready to pivot and experiment with something new, or may be in a position to reflect and generate insights from a lifetime of experience
- Academics whose work has the potential for significant impact—perhaps by shifting thinking in a field, or sparking new ideas
- Academics who want to engage in a diverse cross-sector community, who are good listeners and collaborators, and who are highly intellectually curious
