Public Health and a Lost Future with Siham Ahmed (Payne Fellowship)

When a Federal Agency disappears, so do the futures it was trying to build.

This episode features Siham Ahmed, a 2024 Payne Fellow who was halfway through her graduate program on public health - funded by USAID - when her scholarship and future as a Foreign Service Officer was cut short. Join me as I speak with Siham about the importance of representation, community, public health, and her hopes for a bright future.
