The Emerging Leaders Conference is a great and truly enriching experience for the young people of our time. Indeed, all of the conferences we have attended place human dignity at the center of current national and European legislative issues. From this postulate, we discussed the different tools available to young people in order to modify […]

The ELC on Women’s Health and Rights exceeded my expectations

[su_tabs active=”2″][su_tab title=”English”] As a participant in several Emerging Leaders Conferences, I expected a high level, an excellent experience and, above all, a lot of acquired new knowledge.

The Value of the “Self” in Leadership

It was truly memorable being able to immerse ourselves in the rich culture and life of our Filipino friends during the 8th WYAAP ELC.
