The Grosvenor Teacher Fellowship (GTF) was founded by Sven-Olof Lindblad in

honor of Gilbert M. Grosvenor, the former chairman emeritus of the National

Geographic Society, in recognition of his decades-long work supporting K-12

educators and promoting geographic education across the United States and

Canada. The GTF is a professional learning opportunity for pre-K-12 educators made possible through a collaboration between Lindblad Expeditions and the National Geographic Society. Selected educators are hosted aboard Lindblad Expeditions' voyages for a life-changing, field-based experience. Grosvenor Teacher Fellows transfer their onboard experience into transformative ways to teach students, engage colleagues, and bring new geographic awareness into their learning environments and communities. They also take on a two-year ambassador commitment to support National Geographic's education initiatives.
