🥂 Celebrating the 2025 Yale World Fellows
🌍 This year, the Yale World Fellows Program brought together 16 extraordinary leaders working across environment, technology, politics, media, the arts, human rights, international development, and justice — from a Nigerian singer-songwriter to a Turkish politician to a Pakistani police superintendent.
Throughout their time at Yale, the Fellows inspired the @yale, #YaleJackson, and #NewHaven communities, mentored students, and supported one another with generosity and purpose. On December 9, we were proud to mark their achievements at a closing ceremony celebrating their leadership and impact.
“We must not succumb to cynicism,” said Emma Sky, Director of the Yale International Leadership Center. “What the world needs now is not more despair, but more vision… leaders who can stretch our imagination of what is possible — and inspire good people to act.”
Remarks were offered by Sky, Aleena Gul ’26, the World Fellows Program’s longtime Student Ambassador, and Fellow Wei Xing.
Once a Fellow, always a Fellow. 💙
