We wanted to invest in leaders around the world, just like people invested in us — helping them embrace broad perspectives, harness collective power, and drive meaningful change. We’re excited to introduce you to this year’s cohorts for our Obama Leaders Africa, Asia-Pacific, Europe, and USA programs. Some of them are students trying to find their place in the world, others are already on their way, with careers that span government, business, and civil society. But all of them have a shared commitment to create positive, sustainable change in their communities and around the world. They join the members of our Voyager Scholarship with @BChesky and Obama Foundation Scholars program with the University of Chicago, and we can’t wait to see what they do!".
