Emerging leaders across Canada are organizing and pushing for positive change.
The goal of the Broadbent Institute’s Emerging Leaders Program is to provide emerging leaders working for systemic change with hands-on training and ongoing mentorship and networking opportunities to increase their skills and capacity around progressive policies and projects.
The Emerging Leaders program is a nine-month program with the inaugural cohort beginning March 2023. The cohort will be provided in-depth training from industry experts, ongoing mentorship and networking opportunities, and an invitation to the 2023 Progress Summit and 2023 Broadbent Gala.
