Social Leaders Programme

An immersive 12-day programme in Ahmedabad, India, which is a UNESCO world heritage city and based in the globally renowned Gandhi Ashram.

This programme is intentionally designed to be both inspiring and challenging. 

We believe that it’s only when we push ourselves out of our comfort zones, our mind broadens and we personally grow.

How it works

Programme themes include social enterprise, innovation and personal leadership development.  

This authentic, once in a lifetime experience gives participants a broad range of exposure from:

  • working with grassroots entrepreneurs in India's informal labour market
  • NGOs working with slum communities
  • multi-national scientific venture funds
  • UNDP partner social enterprises

Participants will meet and interact with leaders across different fields, including government and award winning social entrepreneurs.

Everything from daily activities and visits, to where participants stay and what they eat is specifically designed into the programme for an authentic experience.

“Transformative and eye-opening! The best thing about the programme was how integrative it was - there were so many aspects that were proactive and allowed you to experience what other people experience as well as time to really reflect on what we’ve experienced.”
