Connecting grassroots experiences, empowering community leaders, and driving transformative change!
Each year, a group of 20 project leaders come together to collaborate, refine their initiatives, strengthen their collective leadership, and spark lasting change in their communities while advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Over the course of the eight-month program, participants create lasting impact: by enhancing their own leadership skills and transformative potential; by advancing their social impact projects for sustainable development in their local communities; and by sharing their knowledge, experiences, and humanity with a global network of peers.
Program Overview:
The Global Solvers Accelerator brings together emerging change-makers from around the world to develop competencies in global citizenship, sustainable development, and collective leadership.
Throughout the eight-month program, participants engage in carefully designed modules, blended learning, project work, peer exchanges, and expert guidance to build their skills and amplify the transformative impact of their social projects. The accelerator creates cumulative impact on three levels:
- Individual: Enhancing leadership capacity and social impact.
- Community: Unlocking the transformative potential of participants' local projects.
- Systemic: Combining diverse local approaches and knowledge to spark broader societal transformation and progress toward the SDGs.
With eight monthly modules, interconnected themes, significant peer exchange, practical methods and tools, and customized support, the program ensures that participants gain the resources and collaboration they need to succeed.
