Founder’s Welcome
Welcome to Global Emerging Leaders! We are thrilled to have you join us on this incredible journey of empowering young individuals to become positive advocates for change.
​
As a Ph.D. student in education, I witnessed firsthand the urgent need for our youth to receive the support and guidance necessary to think critically and engage in activities that drive social change. Recognizing this imperative need, I was inspired to create this organization as a platform to nurture and expand the potential of young individuals.
Through our collective efforts, we will educate, inspire, and support one another on this path of advocacy and action.
Each one of you has a unique voice and perspective to contribute, and we are here to amplify your voices and help you realize your full potential. As a founder, I am honored to stand alongside you and witness the incredible impact we will make together. Thank you for choosing to be a part of this community. Let us embark on this journey, creating a brighter future and leaving a lasting legacy of positive change.
Welcome, changemakers!
