Mandela Washington Fellows Return to Texas Tech

25 Young African Leaders selected by the U.S. Department of State have arrived to Texas Tech. The University is proud to be a host institution for the second time and help shape a promising future for many countries via an extensive program featuring Leadership in Public Management. The Office of International Affairs, the College of Agricultural Sciences & Natural Resources, the College of Human Sciences, and the College of Education have come together to provide capacity building to engage in public service, foster dialogue within communities, and improve understanding of policy development at a variety of governmental levels. In addition, the fellows will visit several public, private, and non-profit organizations in Lubbock, Canyon, Dallas, and Austin, as well as participate in community service activities. They will bring their experiences from TTU to the Mandela Washington Summit in Washington, D.C. at the end of July along other 675 YALI fellows.
