Call for Young Leaders Aspen 2010

The Young Leaders Program has as main goal, as you can observe from the attached document, to create, in time, a network of young leaders at a regional level in the South East-Eastern Europe region. The young leaders will base their actions and initiatives on a certain set of principles that stand at the Aspen Institute base and at the base of the “Good Society” that we promote.

The deadline for nominations is 1st February 2010.
We are looking for young leaders in various fields (business, academic, public service, media, arts, sports, etc.), between 25 and 35 years old who have the potential and commitment to be leaders in their field. The objective of the program is to promote and advance progressive leadership within society and to create a network of young leaders based on shared values and common interests, as stated above.

The program will consist of three modules, in Romania (more details in the attached Description) culminating with a fourth – a community service based project at a local, national or regional scale, which will demonstrate both the Aspen/universal values but also the participants’ leadership qualities.
