Good day,
My name is Dan Sullivan, a 2013 Gabr Fellow and Ambassador for the Gabr Fellowship program.
The Gabr Fellowship is an initiative of Mr. Shafik Gabr, designed to promote intercultural dialogue and collaboration between Egyptians and Americans. In an increasingly interconnected world, cross-cultural understanding and professional networks are essential for peace and progress. The Fellowship is sponsored by the Shafik Gabr Foundation and organized by the Arab American Institute in Washington, D.C.
The Gabr Fellowship is for emerging leaders in the areas of art, science, media, law, and both social and business entrepreneurship. Applicants should have big ideas and a strong interest in transnational dialogue. All applicants must be 24 to 35 years of age and must be citizens of the United States or Egypt. American applicants without prior travel to Egypt and Egyptian applicants without prior travel to the United States are strongly encouraged to apply.
The Gabr Fellowship saw its inaugural class of 12 Americans and 10 Egyptians travel together in Egypt and the United States over the total course of a month (2014 will be 2 weeks in each country with 2 week break in between trips) in 2013 to learn about the respective cultures, political and economic systems, media, history, and artistic flavor of each country. We traveled through Cairo, Alexandria, Luxor, New York City, Washington, D.C., Atlanta, New Haven, New Jersey, and Virginia. Through seminars, site tours, meetings, classes, and intimate discourse, we learned much about one another and established deep bonds of friendship and understanding. Going forward, we are working on joint sustainable action projects with support from the World Bank.
My aim is to share this experience with as many young professionals, graduate students, and organizational leaders as I can. I sincerely appreciate your support in helping me to connect with audiences who would benefit greatly from hearing about this opportunity and who are committed to what I call, and pursue with vigor, "citizen diplomacy." For more information and for the application (PRIORITY DEADLINE- MARCH 1, 2014), please check out the Gabr Fellowship website at http://eastwestdialogue.org
Thank you for your time and I look forward to connecting with you.
Best wishes,
Dan Sullivan
