The Advancing Leadership Program (ALP)

Global challenges like climate change, biodiversity loss, food insecurity, and environmental injustice are deeply connected. Yet too often, solutions remain fragmented, trapped within disciplines or disconnected from the communities they aim to serve.

The Advancing Leadership Program (ALP) is changing that. The ALP is a one-year global fellowship that brings together researchers, community leaders, Indigenous knowledge holders, policymakers, and practitioners to cultivate the skills, tools and mind-set needed co-create solutions that work in the real world.

Why Your Support Matters

A donation to the ALP is not just funding a program, it is investing in a transformative model of leadership for global environmental change. Your support helps:

Build Inclusive Leadership

We train leaders to work across cultures, sectors, and knowledge systems, ensuring solutions are equitable, ethical, and grounded in lived experience.

Support Community Partnerships

We compensate Indigenous partners fairly, recognizing their expertise as essential, not optional.

Break Down Silos

The ALP equips fellows to bridge science, policy, and local knowledge, turning research into action.

Create Lasting Impact

Rather than short-term outputs, the ALP builds long-term leadership capacity and global networks that continue to drive systemic change.
