Kwaheri Kenya! Hello Israel!

Filed Under: Class of 2020, News

Mark Inkrott and Deanna Zwicker – Presiding Fellows

Kwaheri – Today we say goodbye to Kenya, and hello to Israel, with a brief layover in Ethiopia. After a full week of learning in Kenya, we departed bright and early from Nairobi and traveled most of the day, arriving in Tel Aviv in time for a later dinner and a bit of fellowship with our Class members.

Our flight plan from Jomo Kenyatta Airport in Nairobi, to Addis Ababa Airport in Ethiopia, to Tel Aviv Ben Gurion Airport in Israel.
Class members gathered in Addis Ababa Airport in Ethiopia waiting for their flight to Tel Aviv.
Here is a look at the terrain as class members flew from Ethiopia to Israel.
Class members are greeted with a welcome as they arrive at the Tel Aviv airport.

And finally, we arrived in Israel. Right away we see the contrast. Tel Aviv is a vibrant city, and we look forward to continuing our journey tomorrow in a new country, on a different continent.

Dan Kelley, Class of 1984

Past Chairman of the Board, GROWMARK, Inc.

"You will experience mind-expanding concepts and meet people that challenge you. You will never again see yourself as a small part agriculture. You will see agriculture as the most important industry in the world and realize that you have unlimited choices how to serve and influence the direction of that industry."

Jim Frank, Class of 1984

"The Illinois Ag Leadership Program extends to participants strong and credible experiences which go beyond the typical degree program."

Gerry Salzman, Class of 1992

Past Senior Director Global Marketing, Case IH

"IALF alumni have affiliations with leading organizations in agriculture. IALF has visibility and has positioned itself with a hybrid view of agriculture-urban and rural, combined with strong relations with land grant universities and the private sector. Their graduates are strong voices in the agricultural community."

Bill Niebur, Class of 1988

President and COO, Hi Fidelity Genetics

"The IALF program made me more aware of the importance of agriculture in developing underdeveloped countries.  It opened my eyes to the opportunities all around the world as well as the global impact developed countries have on agriculture."

Brian Anderson, Class of 2014
