The 11th edition of the Atlantic Dialogues Emerging Leaders (ADEL) program took place from December 8-12, 2024, in Rabat, Morocco. This year, 41 exceptional young professionals, aged 25 to 35, were selected from a highly competitive pool of over 1,300 applicants representing 134 countries.
The cohort included participants from 23 nations across the Atlantic region, spanning Africa, Latin America, Europe, North America, and Asia. They brought expertise from a wide range of sectors, including academia, consultancy, government agencies, international organizations, media, NGOs, the private sector, public administration, and think tanks. With this latest cohort, the ADEL network now comprises over 450 members from more than 70 countries, underscoring its expanding global influence and impact.
Each year, the ADEL program is thoughtfully designed to reflect the expertise of its participants while addressing the most pressing economic, political, and social challenges facing the Atlantic region and beyond. The 2024 edition featured a curated series of discussions, interactive workshops, thought-provoking sessions, and field visits, equipping participants with the tools and insights needed to drive meaningful change.
Participants were also invited to contribute to a collaborative written report, an initiative first introduced in 2019. This collective effort ensures that the rich discussions, diverse perspectives, and key insights from the program are documented and shared as a valuable resource for policymakers, thought leaders, and the wider ADEL community.
Serving as a comprehensive record of the program, the report captures key takeaways from expert- led sessions and moderated discussions. Distinguished speakers and facilitators played a pivotal role in enriching conversations, encouraging knowledge exchange, and challenging perspectives, fostering an engaging and thought-provoking experience for all participants.
This edition of the ADEL program reaffirms the PCNS’s commitment to equipping young leaders with the knowledge, skills, and networks necessary to shape the future of the Atlantic and beyond.
