Two Indians among 2015 Yale World Fellows

Washington : Two Indians – SughaVazhvu Healthcare founder and CEO Zeena Johar and journalist-author Rahul Pandita – have been named 2015 Yale World Fellows by the prestigious Ivy League university. With the addition of Pandita and Johar, the global Yale World Fellows network now includes 17 Indian Fellows, more than any other country since the programme was established in 2002. The two are among 16 World Fellows selected in 2015 from a pool of about 4,000 applicants for the New Haven, Connecticut-based university’s signature global leadership development initiative. Each year, the university invites a group of exemplary mid-career professionals from a wide range of fields and countries for an intensive four-month period of academic enrichment and leadership training.
