This report presents regional qualitative findings from three countries in Asia--India, Indonesia, and the Philippines--where the Ford Foundation International Fellowships Program (IFP) was implemented from 2001-2013 The report is second in a series of research reports from the IFP Alumni Tracking Study, a 10-year study that explores the personal and professional trajectories of 4,305 IFP alumni from 22 countries. The report begins with an overview of IFP and the methodology used to arrive at the qualitative findings. Next, an overview of current social and educational issues, and key themes from the region, forms a useful contextual base for the findings sections that follow. The findings sections are based on the theoretical framework for our study, beginning with outcomes at the individual level and progressing to outcomes and impacts at the organizational, community, and societal levels. The last section of the report presents the research team's reflections on the findings and how they can inform policy and decision-making, as well as lessons learned in carrying out a mixed-methods longitudinal study of the program.
