Last month, over 40 Young Global Leaders came together in Chile for the Leadership for Nature and Planet - Patagonia Learning Journey. This immersive program was designed to explore critical issues related to sustainability, impact investment, and democracy in the region. By engaging with local leaders—including the Chilean Minister of Finance—visiting sites highlighting the urgency of the climate crisis, and participating in panels on impact and democracy, these leaders deepened their collective commitment to driving sustainable solutions. Learning journeys are integral to our mission of cultivating responsible leaders. Through experiences like these, we empower our community members with the insights, networks, and tools needed to effectively address global challenges and drive positive change worldwide. -

This week, 50 Young Global Leaders are on a transformative leadership development journey in Nepal, generously hosted by local YGLs. Despite being the fourth most vulnerable nation to climate change, Nepal exemplifies remarkable resilience and leadership in safeguarding its biodiversity and ecosystems. YGLs are engaging with pioneering local leaders and sustainability experts, exploring fresh approaches to environmental stewardship and community resilience. The Community had the honor of meeting with the Right Honorable President of Nepal, His Excellency Ram Chandra Poudel, and influential leaders from both the private and public sectors. These interactions provide a platform for exchanging ideas and forging collaborative partnerships to drive impact across critical agendas. We extend our gratitude to the dedicated organizing team: Nirvana Chaudhary, Tshering Lama, Pradip Pariyar, Lokesh Todi, and Ashutosh Tiwari for making this transformational experience possible. Their commitment and tireless efforts have created an exceptional opportunity for YGLs to learn, grow, and inspire change. -

The power of connection and shared purpose, fostered through our leadership development programme, has led to meaningful impact.#YGLs Lisa Witter, Robyn Scott, and Daniel Sachs co-founded the Apolitical Foundation to modernize political leadership for the 21st century. Their nonpartisan movement has accelerated 17 'Political Leadership Incubators' across 36 countries. In an era of growing public mistrust, the Apolitical Foundation's work is vital. By facilitating dialogue, knowledge-sharing, and capacity-building, they are equipping leaders to navigate complex challenges and build trust.
