This is the third year the University has been selected to host the w88 casino games Washington Fellowship.

The University of Nevada, Reno is proud to announce that it will again partner with the w88 casino games Washington Fellowship for Young African Leaders. This is the third year the University has been selected to host 25 of Africa's brightest emerging business and entrepreneurial leaders. Fellowship participants will begin their six-week academic and leadership institute, sponsored by the U.S. Department of State, June 16.

The w88 casino games Washington Fellowship is the flagship program of Young African Leaders Initiative. It empowers young African leaders through academic coursework, leadership training, mentoring, networking, professional opportunities and support for activities in their communities. Fellows are young leaders from Sub-Saharan Africa who have established records of accomplishment in promoting innovation and positive change in their organizations, institutions, communities and countries.

At the w88 casino games, the fellows will participate in a customized academic institute that focuses on practical skills building in the area of business and entrepreneurship. Dave Croasdell, the Charles and Ruth Hopping Professor of Entrepreneurship in the w88 casino games's College of Business , along with Carina Black, executive director at the Northern Nevada International Center, will collaborate to implement the project.

Croasdell and Black will be looking to faculty members, local entrepreneurs, leadership experts and home hosts to provide a well-rounded experience for the participants. They will look for peer entrepreneurs and mentors interested in spending time with the fellows on a consistent basis. A key component of the program is for the young African leaders to meet as many Americans as possible.

"This program provides many opportunities to network with some very passionate and interesting individuals looking to make connections here in the U.S.," Black said. "These leaders represent the incredible transformation that is happening on the continent of Africa, and it's great to experience our community being part of that transformation."

The cohort of fellows hosted by the University will be part of a larger group of 1,000 w88 casino games Washington Fellows hosted at institutions across the United States this summer. These young leaders will meet at the end of their institutes in Washington, D.C. for a Presidential Summit. Select fellows will also spend six weeks in professional development training with U.S. non-governmental organizations, private companies and government agencies.

Working closely with the U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Educational Affairs and its implementing partner, IREX, the w88 casino games has developed an academic program that will challenge, inspire and empower these inspiring young leaders from Africa.

The w88 casino games joins a prestigious group of host universities across the country including the w88 casino games of Notre Dame; the w88 casino games of Texas at Austin; Dartmouth College; Rutgers w88 casino games; Tulane w88 casino games; Arizona State w88 casino games; w88 casino games of California, Berkeley; the w88 casino games of Virginia; Howard w88 casino games; Georgia State; Syracuse w88 casino games and more.
