Miller welcomes Mandela Washington Fellows

Participants were hosted by universities across America, including Howard University in Washington, D.C., Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire, and the University of California at Berkeley. The programme included leadership seminars and mentoring and networking sessions, as well as community service opportunities and cultural outings. 

Fellows then travelled to Washington, D.C. to participate in a three-day Presidential Summit, which included a town hall meeting with President Obama and leaders in the US government, civil society, and private sector. Two members of Botswana’s delegation will stay in the United States for eight week internships.
