*What are fellows saying?*
*Anoka Abeyrathne**, *Sri Lanka
"They say some experiences change you forever. For me, the Laureate Global
Fellowship is one of them. From design thinking to program planning and
personal growth, the sessions afforded us experiential learning
opportunities — allowing us not only to be creative and innovative, but
also to see how our learning applies to real life."

*Leo Henghes, United Kingdom*
"I generally find leadership seminars to be motivational talks which sound
great, but lack substance. The retreat was based upon sound research and
provided concrete tools to help me in my leadership and social
entrepreneurship."

*Nafula Wafula, Kenya*
"Through the Fellowship, I have learned to appreciate myself as a leader
and reach for new heights. I have overcome barriers I had set for myself
without even realizing it. I have learned that I cannot create the impact I
want to if I do not consider my own wellbeing as a leader."
