Are you passionate about making a positive difference in the world and aged 18-35?

I thought you might be interested in applying for WYSE's flagship International Leadership Programme which takes place this summer, from 31th July - 12th August, at the beautiful Villa Boccella, near Lucca, Italy.

WYSE's world renowned International Leadership Programme provides a unique and inspirational opportunity to:

  • Explore the underlying causes of global problems, and develop a social entrepreneurial approach.
  • Identify your values and guiding principles in order to gain a clearer sense of balance, purpose and life direction.
  • Develop an international network of friends and peers who wish to collaborate and make a positive difference.

WYSE International is a global charity that supports young people with vision and awareness, who care about what's happening in the world, and want to do what they can to make a positive difference. We promote visionary leadership capable of responding to evolving world needs such as peace, human rights, democracy and sustainability.

People who have attended WYSE in the past have found the experience extremely beneficial, and have come away with a clearer sense of who they are and where they are heading in the future. Here are some recent feedback quotes from participants:
