Universidade NOVA de Lisboa is granting the Honoris Causa Doctorate title to Juan Manuel Santos.
This is outdated: NOVA already awarded Santos the honorary doctorate on November 13, 2017.
Full reasoning
The sentence is written in the future/present progressive (“is granting”), but NOVA’s own website shows the degree had already been conferred. NOVA states that it awarded Juan Manuel Santos the title of Doctor Honoris Causa in a ceremony held on November 13, 2017. So the article is not describing a pending event; it is using stale wording for something that had already happened.

- NOVA awarded the title of Doctor Honoris Causa to the President of Colombia – UNL
Universidade NOVA de Lisboa awarded the title of Doctor Honoris Causa to Juan Manuel Santos ... in a ceremony that took place in the Rectorate on November 13.
Santos was named as the fourth Angelopoulos Global Public Leaders Fellowship program at the Harvard Kennedy School
Harvard Kennedy School named Santos an Angelopoulos Global Public Leaders Fellow, not a “Fellowship program.”
Full reasoning
This sentence misstates what Harvard Kennedy School named him. HKS announced that Santos was named the next Angelopoulos Global Public Leaders Fellow. In other words, Santos was the fellow participating in the program, not “the ... Fellowship program” itself. The current wording is factually wrong about the title/conferment.
