[afro-nets] Global Health Corps Applications Now Open!

Hello!

I hope this email finds you well! I am working as a Global Health Corps Fellow with the Office of the U.S. Global AIDS Coordinator (PEPFAR) at the U.S. Department of State. Our mission at the Global Health Corps is to mobilize a global community of emerging leaders to build the movement for health equity.

My experience in the fellowship has been very positive in which I've gotten to expand my knowledge of global public health policy, worked with committed individuals in the fight to save lives and combat HIV/AIDS, and become part of a community of future global health leaders.

I have volunteered to help recruit next year's class of Fellows and am writing to seek your support with this effort. We are searching for the world's most promising young leaders from a wide range of sectors and backgrounds.

Fellowship positions are available in Burundi, Malawi, Rwanda, Uganda, Zambia, and the US. Applications for the 2012-2013 fellowship year are now open at http://http://ghcorps.org/apply <http://http//ghcorps.org/apply&gt;\.

If you're interested, please apply to be a GHC fellow and if not, I would greatly appreciate your help spreading the word - please forward the flyer below (also attached) widely. Thank you.

Best regards,

Haroun
