Featured Youth Leadership Pilot
Learners to Leaders
A six-month leadership and generosity pilot connecting young people from Ukraine, Afghanistan and Syria. Participants discover their strengths, recognise the value of what they know, explore problems that matter to them and develop small, achievable ideas that can make a difference.
