Leadership Forum & Events
Afghanistan Youth Parliament, Learning & Leadership
Where Young Leaders Connect, Learn, and Grow
As part of the AYPFRS Learning & Leadership pillar, the Leadership Forum & Events program brings together Afghan youth for online skill-building workshops, a guide to international programmes, and leadership development opportunities. We help young Afghans access global youth forums, connect with mentors, and build the skills they need to create positive change in their communities and beyond.
Online Leadership Forum
A yearly online gathering where fellows and alumni present community projects.
The Forum brings young Afghans together with practitioners, educators and entrepreneurs for talks, panel discussions and interactive workshops, all online. Rahbar Fellowship alumni showcase their community projects here. AYP’s Think Tank owns the research; the Forum hosts the sessions where its Youth Pulse briefings are presented and discussed. Status: Planned; dates will be announced once confirmed.
