Younes Zangiabadi
Executive Director, Institute for Peace & Diplomacy, Canada

“The ADEL program has been transformative for me, both personally and professionally. It introduced me to a global network of incredibly talented and passionate emerging leaders, and it’s already allowed me to start collaborating on exciting initiatives—even though it’s only been just over a month since I joined! I feel like this is just the beginning, and there is so much more to come. 

What makes ADEL truly unique is the sense of community it fosters—a sense that goes beyond a mere network. It gives you a profound feeling of belonging and shared purpose, as we, emerging leaders, strive to play both individual and collective roles in making the world a better place for our generation and the ones to follow. 

It’s one thing to receive support from established figures in the field, but it’s another to feel seen, empowered, and inspired by your peers—other young leaders who are equally committed to creating positive change.”
