UI Student To Participate In One World Foundation's Young Leaders Program
University of Iowa undergraduate student Laila Mohamed, a Japanese and linguistics major in the UI College of Liberal Arts and Sciences (CLAS) from Coralville, is the first UI delegate to the One World Foundation's Summer Young Leaders Program.
The One World Foundation's summer programs take students of color from across the United States on service learning volunteer projects in developing countries. This is the program's first year, and the UI has joined Yale University and Lincoln University as the first university sponsors of scholarships for students to participate in summer programs in Cambodia and Mali. The UI Center for Diversity and Enrichment and UI International Programs are sponsoring the $3,500 scholarship to cover Mohamed's travel and accommodation expenses in the program.
During the summer program, Mohamed will work in Cambodia for Cambodian Living Arts, an organization that supports the revival of Cambodian traditional art forms and inspires contemporary artistic expression. The One World Foundation's mission is to encourage young people of color to become actively engaged in the human rights and development arenas, particularly as they affect indigenous and minority rights.
"Laila is the perfect person to represent the UI in this inaugural partnership," said Adrienne Hurley, assistant professor of modern Japanese literature in CLAS and coordinator of UI's partnership with the One World Foundation. "She has a keen sense of social justice, a sincere desire to make a positive difference in the world, and a seemingly endless supply of energy."
Mohamed was born in Sudan. When she was four years old, her family moved to Egypt, where they lived for five years. She also lived in Russia, New York and Texas before her family relocated to Iowa, where she has lived since seventh grade.
"I'm extremely honored to be selected for this," Mohamed said. "I think an opportunity to do something for another human being is one of the best things one can do with one's life."
Mohamed will fly to New York on May 30 for an orientation before her group departs for Cambodia on June 1. She will return on August 1 and will share her experiences in several on-campus presentations.
