Testimonials

“My ADEL selection was a welcome surprise that brought me to an incredible community of young technology, development, and policy professionals working on bettering governance in the new South. My experience scaling real-world solutions with cutting-edge technology was welcomed into the discussions which reflected a diversity of perspectives from across the globe. The team curated an intense program that forged strong bonds of friendship, collaboration, and fostered collective learning in the fleeting space of a week. We engaged with leading voices for change, informed global policymakers of our learnings, and ensured we presented our perspective on new-age issues to an audience of world leaders that recognized the need for youth participation to drive lasting change. I am incredibly grateful to the organizing team for the opportunity to be part of this community now and for years to come!”
