Hanna Tetteh, UN Special Envoy to the Horn of Africa

The Horn of Africa remains in focus, with a tenuous cease-fire in place in Sudan and the UN seeking funding to mitigate a humanitarian disaster across much of the region caused by drought and famine.

And so, we were honored to welcome UN Special Envoy Hanna Tetteh to Dartmouth earlier this month as a Class of 1950 Senior Foreign Affairs Fellow. She met with our students and faculty, and joined Ambassador Jim Swan, our visiting Magro fellow, as he taught his "The United Nations in the Global Arena" undergraduate class. And in her public presentation she shared her experience and insights on the challenges facing the Horn of Africa with the Dartmouth community.
