We are revolutionising the leadership development landscape, by equipping young people with the leadership experience, skills and network they need to deliver positive change in the world.
We make a difference today with the leaders of tomorrow.
Each year, we send UK Delegates to…

‘Representing the UK as Head Delegate at the Y20 was one of the most intense and transformative experiences of my career — a true test of diplomacy, resilience, and purpose. In the chaos of negotiation rooms, I saw how the power of young voices can cut through divides and shape the future of global policy’
‘Being part of the Y20 in Brazil was transformative to my career and changed my outlook on what direction I could take in the future. As an engineer I didn’t take the standard route into international diplomacy but leading the Y20 delegation made me realise there was a place for me on the international stage and find my power in youth representation.’
