Dr. Mohamed Zahir Completes Prestigious Archbishop Tutu Leadership Fellowship

We proudly congratulate Dr. Mohamed Zahir, General Secretary of the Tanzania Human Genetics Organization (THGO), on his successful completion of the Archbishop Tutu Leadership Fellowship with the African Leadership Institute in partnership with the University of Oxford.

This prestigious fellowship is recognized across the continent for nurturing values-driven, transformative leadership. Dr. Zahir’s reflections on his journey highlight the depth of growth, self-discovery, and renewed commitment to service that the programme instills. Over the past months, he has been challenged to reflect on purpose, expand perspectives on Africa’s future, and sharpen the skills required to lead with integrity, courage, and vision.

The fellowship brought together extraordinary Africans from diverse fields, each contributing unique insights and inspiring one another with their resilience, passion, and unwavering dedication to creating lasting impact. Dr. Zahir’s active engagement in this vibrant network not only strengthens his personal leadership but also amplifies the work he continues to do through THGO and beyond.

His commitment to embodying the values of integrity, service, and purpose-driven leadership is an inspiration to us all. We believe that the knowledge and experiences he has gained will ripple outward—enhancing his contributions to advancing science, health, and human development in Tanzania and across Africa.

As Archbishop Desmond Tutu reminded us, “Do your little bit of good where you are; it’s those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world.” Dr. Zahir’s achievement is a reminder that leadership is not a destination but a continuous journey of creating positive change, one step at a time.

We celebrate this important milestone and look forward to witnessing the many ways in which Dr. Zahir will continue to make a difference for communities, the continent, and the world.
