British Council’s Future Leaders Connect 2017

British Council’s Future Leaders Connect 2017 is where exceptional individuals (aged 18-35) from around the world join a long-term network of emerging policy leaders.

Together you will discuss major global policy issues in the Houses of Parliament, engage with inspiring leaders, visit some of the UK’s leading global institutions and collaborate to produce innovative policy recommendations. The skills, experience and connections you will make through Future Leaders Connect will support you to seize your leadership potential.
