Next Generation Leaders
Now Accepting Applications and Nominations for 2018
The Hungary Foundation (HIF) is pleased to announce that the McCain Institute for International Leadership is now accepting applications and nominations for their 2018 Next Generation Leaders Program.
With support of HIF, the McCain Institute will offer an opportunity to a qualified mid-career professional from Hungary to participate in their flagship program which will begin in September 2018.
This is a very unique initiative which will provide him/her a fully-funded year of tailored professional and personal development in the United States. At four junctures throughout the year, the program will provide training in ethics, values, leadership, media, and communications.
The Next Generation Leaders program is open to emerging leaders in their respective fields who are likely to play significant leadership roles in their societies in the future. The program focuses on recruiting professionals from countries that need significant reforms or are undergoing political, economic, or social transition, but remains open to any qualified and talented individual regardless of country of origin.
Target sectors:
Climate change; cybersecurity; e-governance; energy, food and water; EU post-Brexit; anti-human and labor trafficking; infrastructure development; national security; political leadership; post-conflict reconstruction; freedom of the press; refugee resettlement; South China Sea regional cooperation; and the politics of international trade.
