CA-3-D000114001 2026-07-12T06:32:49 This project aims to improve the ability of emerging leaders in developing countries to implement innovative solutions to development challenges, influence public policy and take on key decision-making roles in their countries. The project provides training at the Coady Institute to more than 1,500 women and men from government, private sector and civic organizations in four areas: (i) supporting inclusive and sustainable economic growth; (ii) building resilient communities focused on food security and natural resources management; (iii) building accountable democracies; and (iv) empowering women and girls as leaders. Graduates then return to their countries and apply their new knowledge, skills and expertise to their organizations and communities. The project also establishes a global alumni network to track graduates’ progress and impact, strengthen their capacity to deliver results and ensure sustainability.
