By now you probably know that President Obama visited the African continent last week. President Obama made some significant announcements during his visit. The announcement of the Washington Fellowship for Young African Leaders was of particular interest to us.

Under this new initiative, every year about 500 young African leaders will be given an opportunity to enhance their skills through a 6 weeks fellowship at an American university or college. The fellowship will involve mentoring and training with top faculty and leaders with specializations related to the fellows’ areas of interest. It will also provide opportunities for the fellows to acquire new skills and leverage their current skills through the provision of internships at both private and government organizations in the United States and throughout Africa. Some of the organizations that have partnered with the program to provide practical work experience and training for the fellows include Microsoft, Boeing, and the Export-Import Bank.

As part of the program, the U.S. African Development Fund and the U.S. Department of State will fund businesses, ideas, and organizations developed by the fellows.

In order to qualify for the Washington Fellowship, applicants need to be between 25 and 35 years old. Applicants must have a track record of leadership in public service, business or entrepreneurship, and civic engagement. The fellowship is open to only citizens of sub-Saharan African countries who are fluent in English. U.S. citizens and permanent residents are ineligible. Applicants must also be committed to returning to Africa and applying their skills on the continent.
