Congratulations to the 30 Emerging Leaders who have been selected for the 2022 ADEL program! |
|
|
As you may know, the Atlantic Dialogues Emerging Leaders program is back in 2022! After a two-year break due to the Coronavirus pandemic, the Policy Center for the New South (PCNS) is bringing back its flagship young professionals’ program.
The program will take place between December 11th and 16th 2022 in Marrakech, Morocco. We have received more than 1600 applications and had the difficult task of selecting 30 Emerging Leaders for this year’s cohort, as opposed to 40 to 50 that we have selected in previous editions of the program. After a two month long grading and selection process, 30 outstanding candidates were selected and invited to join the program and ADEL community!
You can check out their profiles here.
