Love-Kendy Jourdan is a rising sophomore at Northwestern University, currently double majoring in political science and social policy. A previously appointed United Nations Peace Ambassador in Haiti, Love-Kendy plans to pursue a career in human rights advocacy and peacebuilding initiatives, which he considers his life mission. As a certified human rights consultant, Love-Kendy is leading the Youth Empowerment Organization, a nonprofit he cofounded in 2021 in Haiti to empower young people to take up space and be true changemakers in the country. With support from the Clark and Hinman Foundation Fellowship, Love-Kendy will travel back to Haiti this summer to coordinate the nonprofit’s third National Annual Summer Program with an emphasis on public policy advocacy, democracy, and human rights activism.
