Long overdue news, I have been appointed as a Specialist of the Community Engagement Exchange Program by the US State Department, a multi-tiered professional exchange designed for civil society actors and influencers in over 100 countries! 🌎 135 global leaders from 59 countries were nominated by their respective US Embassies, and after a rigorous selection process, 20 of them were chosen to be CEE Specialist Mentors. In this role, I will be mentoring the first-ever class of CEE Fellows, who I am looking forward to meeting this week in Detroit, Michigan 🇺🇸. Upon my appointment, I also served in the primary selection as well as the final interview committee of the cohort. Truly excited to support their professional leadership journey in the coming months. Thanks to US Embassy Dhaka, the US State Department and IREX for having me on board.
