Kectil Youth Leadership Programme 2027

Description

Kectil is accepting applications for its year-long leadership programme for young people aged 17 to 26. Hosted by the Malmar Knowles Family Foundation, the 2027 programme is free for accepted applicants. It focuses on responsible leadership, good governance and practical community impact within an international network of young people. The learning journey combines personal reflection, exchanges, written work and preparation for local initiatives. Community projects and alumni contributions illustrate work in education, health, the environment and inclusion. This online programme requires sustained participation across the year; it is neither a university scholarship nor a promise of funded travel. Apply using the 2027 form on Kectil’s website and explain your responsibilities, motivations and the community needs you hope to address. Applications close on November 15, 2026. Check the information in your application carefully and consider how you will make time for activities throughout the programme rather than treating acceptance as a one-off event.
