🎉 From the Steppe to the Finger Lakes! 🌾🌍

We’re excited to share this new article by one of our 2024–25 Cornell Humphrey Fellows, Khaliunaa (Helen) Enkhbold, highlighting the upcoming Mongolian Naadam Festival at Lively Run Goat Dairy on Saturday, June 28 — a celebration of global cultures, food, games, storytelling, and community in the heart of the Finger Lakes!

This collaboration with a local business is a powerful example of how international exchange strengthens U.S. communities — enriching local culture and creating meaningful connections that benefit everyone. We’re proud to see our Fellows leading the way.

Mark your calendars for June 28 and join the celebration!

On April 24th, we had the joy of celebrating this year’s Cornell University Fulbright Humphrey Fellows at our graduation ceremony! “Grateful” doesn’t quite capture it—“enormously grateful” comes closer to describing the pride and joy we felt as we honored our remarkable Fellows.

The celebration featured heartfelt words from our wonderful Friendship Partners Linda and Phil, Fellow-nominated MGR, Director Ed Mabaya, and Associate Director Polly Endreny Holmberg. Surrounded by family and friends, we commemorated the achievements of this year’s outstanding Humphrey Fellows—a truly well-deserved moment of celebration and gratitude.

Stay tuned for more content from our graduation event and other highlights from 2025! We can’t wait to share the incredible moments and memories with you throughout the spring and summer.

🎉Dr. Ed Mabaya Appreciation Post🎉

The CU Humphrey Fellowship Program is co-led by Dr. Ed Mabaya. While there are no words to truly express the magnitude of his contributions to the work of the Humphrey Fellowship, we wanted to give it a shot here with this post.

Ed's leadership is defined by both his professionalism and approachability. His patient guidance is matched with his propensity to be the first to laugh.

Always there to serve as a wise sounding board, always dedicated to a sense of joy in all ways of being. Ed, we all benefit greatly from having you in our lives. Thank you for your gifts.
