With the realization of the first module entitled “Fundamentals: Elections and Integrity”, we officially marked the beginning of the fifth generation of the Academy for Public Policy. The opening module focused on elections, democratic values, integrity, ethical leadership, and responsible political communication. During these three days, we enabled 20 young political leaders from different political parties to learn, reflect, debate, and collaborate.
This first module is only the beginning. Throughout 2026, the Academy will accompany participants on a comprehensive journey of learning, reflection, and real-world engagement.
- in the first half of 2026, the Academy will continue with two more learning modules, offering in-depth training delivered by leading academics, policymakers, practitioners, and international experts.
- in the second half of the year, participants will apply their knowledge through the development of public policy documents and implementation of innovative initiatives, culminating in the promotion of concrete policy solutions on the local level.
The energy, openness, and motivation demonstrated by this group reaffirm why investing in youth political leadership is essential for strengthening democratic culture. We are looking forward to a year of learning, collaboration, and meaningful political participation!
