MY journey over the last 10 months under the Hubert H Humphrey Fellowship programme has been fruitful and excellent. I was on a Fulbright Exchange activity sponsored by the US Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs. Fellowships are granted competitively to professional candidates around the world who show a commitment to public service in both the public and private sectors. It is a fully-funded scholarship.

I met many interesting individuals from the legal fraternity, law enforcement, anti-human trafficking and anti-migrant smuggling, non-governmental organisations/volunteers and victims of trafficking.
