The Atlantic Dialogues Emerging Leaders Alumni (ADEL) Portraits are a series of journalistic insights that delve into the stories and backgrounds of impactful young leaders of the ADEL community, now 350 alumni strong. These portraits are more than a biography as they capture the motives, success stories, career shifts, and vision behind each emerging leader’s pursuit of positive impact. From Morocco to South Africa, Germany to Canada, Brazil and the United States, these young leaders from very diverse walks of life came together in Marrakech at some point over the past 10 years to take part in the annual Atlantic Dialogues Emerging Leaders program, to connect with other young professionals and leaders from around the Atlantic basin, contribute to bridging the North-South divide very much present in the Atlantic space, and become strong actors of intergenerational dialogue which is a central value held by the Policy Center for the New South. This book compiles 30 inspiring portraits, written by freelance French journalist Sabine Cessou, specialized in African and European matters, and a Research Fellow of the Policy Center for the New South.

This policy brief explores the background to the institutiona ...
