I am extremely grateful to be a part of the exclusive group of Obama Leaders who participated in a round table discussion with President Barack Obama, moderated by Ben Rhodes in Berlin. I feel humbled yet incredibly invigorated to carry forward our shared mission of preserving universal values and enhancing democratic institutions across Europe and around the world.

President Obama and the Obama Foundation “are committed to supporting the next generation of leaders who will fight extremism, advocate for human rights, and inspire young people to get involved in their communities”.

It is a great privilege to share this mission with Alice Barbe, Pavel Kounchev, Fatima Zaman, Sarah Durieux, Raquel Vazquez Llorente, Peymana Assad, Julia Mouzon, Nada Zohdy and so many others.
