In order to build a future that is brighter, more just, and hopeful, we need a new generation of dreamers and changemakers that are equipped with the values, passion, and skills to take on society's most complex and urgent challenges. I learned from my experience as a Center of Public Leadership Fellow at Harvard Kennedy School how valuable it is to have a community of peers and mentors engaging in the work together. I hope that the 2045 Fellowship is a place of knowledge, hope, and strength for these future leaders.
