Dear Friend:

I am writing with the hope that you might help us to identify candidates
for the Yale World Fellows Program. Launched two years ago as part of
Yale's broader efforts to become more internationally focused, this
initiative seeks to bring to Yale each year 16 to 18 emerging
international leaders from any field for a special 15-week leadership
program. Fellows have come from business, government, media, the
military and nongovernmental organizations. This year's Fellows include
a former minister of foreign trade from Colombia, an Internet
entrepreneur from Australia, a Ugandan member of parliament who is
running for president, a refugee doctor from Iraq, the director of
Transparency International Slovakia, and a top policy advisor to British
Prime Minister Tony Blair.

We seek accomplished men and women of great promise from outside the
United States who have demonstrated their capacity to make a difference
in their own countries and societies. We are looking for candidates who
would benefit from a period of time at Yale to explore critical world
issues, sharpen their leadership skills, and build relationships with
other emerging leaders. The Fellows will participate in a global issues
seminar, have access to the entire selection of courses available at
Yale, and have the help of a faculty advisor to develop independent
study opportunities.

We would very much appreciate your nomination of one or more candidates
for the World Fellows Program. The nomination form can be found on our
web site, or as an attachment below. Please send us your candidate's
name, contact information and a brief statement on why you think he or
she should be selected.

Please feel free to pass this Yale World Fellows Program material on to
those whom you wish to nominate or to any person you think might be in a
position to nominate strong candidates. If you have any questions about
the Program, please do not hesitate to contact us at 203-432-1910 or

Thank you in advance for your help with this initiative.

Sincerely,

Daniel C. Esty
Director
