We’re excited to celebrate Nthabeleng Hlapisi, a remarkable leader from the 2025 Mandela Washington Fellowship for Young African Leaders cohort, who has been selected to stay in the United States for a Professional Development Experience (PDE)!

Nthabeleng Hlapisi is working in Minneapolis, Minnesota, with Hennepin County Public Health. She will support strategic initiatives, including community engagement, developing communications, leading health-related strategic planning discussions, and coordinating with partners on planning and initiatives.

This extended opportunity will allow Nthabeleng to deepen her leadership expertise, explore innovative approaches in her field, and gain hands-on experience that will benefit her community upon her return to Lesotho. We are proud of Nthabeleng’s achievements and can’t wait to see the impact she’ll make! #MWF2025 #MWFLesotho2025 #Yali2025

Yesterday, CDA Tom Hines and the Embassy’s Public Diplomacy team officially welcomed back the Mandela Washington Fellowship 2025 cohort.

The impressive, award-winning fellows shared stories about their journey, the highs, the challenges, and the exciting ideas they look forward to implementing now that they are back home.

We wish each of them the very best in their next chapters and can’t wait to see the impact they will make in their communities! #Yali2025 #MWF2025

Meet Nthabeleng Hlapisi, the ninth fellow of Lesotho’s 2025 Mandela Washington Fellowship for Young African Leaders cohort.

Nthabeleng is an emerging leader in medicinal chemistry and public health, currently pursuing her PhD at the University of KwaZulu-Natal. With a deep scientific curiosity and commitment to improving health outcomes, she focuses her research on Lesotho’s indigenous plants, exploring their potential to produce affordable and effective cancer treatments.

Nthabeleng combines rigorous academic research with a passion for community-centered healthcare solutions, advocating for treatments that are not only innovative but also accessible to the populations that need them most. Her strong analytical skills, dedication to evidence-based science, and collaborative mindset position her as a future leader in health policy and research in Lesotho.

She aspires to establish a dedicated cancer research laboratory in Lesotho to drive locally relevant studies and inform policies that improve cancer prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. Through her work, Nthabeleng bridges the gap between scientific discovery, policy development, and real-world impact on public health.

Nthabeleng will spend six weeks at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities, under the Leadership in Public Management track, and will also spend an extra four weeks in a Professional Development Experience (PDE) to further advance her practical skills and research expertise. We are proud to spotlight her inspiring journey! #MWF2025 #MWFLesotho2025 #YALI2025

The introduction is the first interaction your reader will have with you piece of work. YOU NEED TO MAKE IT WORTH IT.

The introduction should include context, indicate structure and show evidence of some research.

Here's a summary of an excellent introduction:

☹️Google Scholar is a great tool. But it doesn't show how papers are connected with each other.

😀Here's how to fast-track your literature review with a "visual search."

And export your papers to Zotero, Mendeley, or EndNote.
