Distinguished Humphrey Leadership Program
February 8-15, 2020

​Egypt and Nigeria


​The Hubert H. Humphrey Fellowship Program enhances leadership among international professionals who collaborate to address local and global challenges and foster change for our collective good.  Through academic study and professional development with U.S. counterparts, this growing global network shares best practices and builds expertise in fields of critical importance to advance societal and institutional capacity, promote human rights and freedoms, ensure sustainable environments, and develop thriving communities.

For the 2020 Fellowship, the Institute for International Education selected World Partnerships to host two Distinguished Humphrey Leaderships Program Fellows from Egypt and from Nigeria. The Humphrey Leadership Fellows interacted with Tampa Bay's academic, entrepreneurial and high-technology professional resources to create new global collaboration networks and new technology development methodologies.

From Nigeria, Dr. Amina Magaji (bio below) met hundreds of tech entrepreneurs, venture capitalists and industry leaders at the Synapse Summit 2020, and she also met with leaders from Embarc Collective, the University of Tampa, Tampa Bay Wave and the University of South Florida St. Petersburg campus. From Egypt, Dr. Mohamed El Tayeb (bio below) engaged with senior officials of the University of South Florida, the USF Morsani School of Medicine, the USF Bishop Center for Ethics, USF Sarasota Manatee campus, the USF Connect Tampa Bay Technology Incubator, and USF World.
