SUMMARY:Emerging Leader Award Celebration - Tareq Alaows\, Syrian-German Activist
DESCRIPTION:Join the Graduate School of Public and International Affair’s Johnson Institute for Responsible Leadership at the University of Pittsburgh for the Emerging Leader Award Celebration. \nTareq Alaows is a legal professional and political leader. Born and raised in Syria\, Alaows came to Germany in 2015 as a refugee and has since become a German citizen. Alaows dedicates his career to advocacy and representation for refugee and minority populations in German politics\, becoming the first Syrian refugee to run for German Parliament in 2021. Before his departure from Syria in 2015\, Alaows worked as a law student\, activist\, and humanitarian worker for the Red Crescent. In Germany\, Alaows founded a refugee political group called Refugee Strike Bochum and an advocacy organization called Seebrucke\, which seeks to establish safe havens for refugees and speak against the criminalization of refugee rescue. Alaows also performs legal counseling for refugees in Germany. \nEach year\, the Johnson Institute presents an Emerging Leader award to an individual still in the early part of their career\, who is committed to the highest standards of professional leadership\, compassion\, ethics\, and stewardship of our world and the people who share it. Past honorees have included President and CEO of Baltimore Corps Fagan Harris\, Civil Rights Corps Founder and Executive Director Alec Karakatsanis\, and Eco-Soap Bank Founder and Executive Director Samir Lakhani. \nThe Johnson Institute will honor Mr. Alaows in a virtual award ceremony\, followed by a brief talk by Alaows and Q&A with the audience. This event is free and open to the public. \nRegister here.
