YGLF warmly welcomes Dr. Jasmin Cowin to its Inter-generational Council, who also served as our exemplary Executive Director several years ago. In the interim, she has brilliantly established herself as a professorial educator, expanding her expertise. Our Chair, Dr. Linda, and Dr. Jasmin first met through Rotary International NY, where both were active members years ago. Dr. Jasmin also filled an all-important role in the successful, inaugural YGLF Global Colloquium 2013 that ultimately led to UN NGO ECOSOC Special Consultative status since 2018.
The Young Global Leadership Foundation (YGLF) guides aspiring young adults from around the world to promote democracy and to become effective and ethical leaders towards peaceful and productive global connection and collaboration in the 21st C. YGLF adheres to and advocates for the ethos of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): Agenda 2030: The SDGs address the advancement of: People ~ Planet ~ Peace ~ Prosperity ~ Partnership.
Dr. Jasmin (Bey) Cowin, an Associate Professor at Touro University, received the 2024 Touro University CETL Faculty Fellowship for Excellence in Teaching and the Rockefeller Institute of Government awarded her the prestigious Richard P. Nathan Public Policy Fellowship (2024-2025). As a Fulbright Scholar and SIT Graduate, she was selected to be a U.S. Department of State English Language Specialist. Her expertise in AI in education is underscored by her role as an AI trainer and former Education Policy Fellow (EPFP™) at Columbia University's Teachers College. As a columnist for Stankevicius, she explores Nicomachean Ethics at the intersection of AI and education. She has contributed to initiatives like Computers for Schools Burundi, served as a resource specialist for Amity University in Uttar Pradesh, India, and participated in TESOL "Train the Trainer" programs in Yemen and Morocco. Her research interests include simulations and metaverse for educators-in-training, AI applications in education and language acquisition and teaching, and distributed ledger technologies, with a focus on her 'Education for 2060' theme.
In conclusion, my commitment extends beyond transactional interactions, focusing instead on utilizing my skills and privileges to make a positive, enduring impact on the world.
