At We Connect UN, our programs are designed to ignite passion, inspire purpose, and shape the leaders of tomorrow. These transformative experiences are not just about learning; they are about growth, connection, and commitment to making a lasting difference in the world. Through our carefully crafted curricula, we bring together individuals from diverse backgrounds, providing them with the tools, knowledge, and networks they need to thrive as global leaders.
Each program is an opportunity to step into a journey of self-discovery, empowerment, and purpose. Whether you are a student taking your first steps toward global leadership or an executive seeking to deepen your understanding of the UN system, our programs are designed to meet you where you are and guide you toward where you want to go. With hands-on learning, meaningful discussions, and real-world application, we ensure that each participant leaves with more than just knowledge; they leave with the confidence to drive positive change.
We believe that leadership is about impact, integrity, and collaboration. Our programs create a platform for participants to engage with the world’s most pressing issues, learn from experts and peers, and walk away ready to contribute to the global conversation. Every individual who completes a We Connect UN program is part of a global network of changemakers, united by a shared vision for a better, more sustainable future.
The Global Executive Leadership Programme (GELP) is an extraordinary opportunity for students at every stage of their academic journey, from A levels/Plus Two to doctoral studies, to step into the world of leadership with purpose and passion. At We Connect UN, we believe that true leadership begins early, and GELP is designed to empower young minds to unlock their potential, embrace their strengths, and understand the power they hold to create meaningful change in the world.
The UN Executive Leadership Programme (UNELP) is designed to empower and inspire individuals across a spectrum of professional backgrounds to step into leadership roles with a deeper understanding of global governance, sustainable development, and ethical leadership. Whether you are a government official, a corporate executive, an NGO activist, a media professional, a teacher, a banker, or a principal of an educational institution, this programme is for you.
At We Connect UN, we believe in creating a transformative leadership journey that goes beyond traditional learning. Our programs are designed to bring global perspectives to future leaders, drawing on the rich culture and history of Europe. With each program carefully structured to run from March to November, we aim to provide the most conducive environment for growth and exploration. The winter season, while beautiful, presents logistical challenges that may limit certain experiences, which is why our focus remains on the months from March through November.
Our programs are organized on an institutional basis, allowing us to cater specifically to the unique needs of academic institutions, corporations, or other professional groups looking to empower their teams effectively and efficiently. For the Global Executive Leadership Programme (GELP), we require a minimum of 30 students to organize a batch, while the UN Executive Leadership Programme (UNELP) needs at least 15 participants. This ensures a dynamic, interactive, and diverse learning environment where innovative ideas and perspectives from different backgrounds can flourish and thrive.

To provide a truly enriching and seamless experience, We Connect UN requires three months of detailed preparation before each program can successfully commence. This lead time ensures that all logistics are meticulously in place, from accommodation and transportation to program content and venue selection. It also allows us to thoughtfully personalize each experience to the specific needs of the batch, ensuring that every participant receives the attention and essential resources they truly deserve.
While we recommend a specific timeline, We Connect UN offers flexibility to adjust program dates within the March to November window. This adaptability allows us to meet the unique needs of different institutions, ensuring that no matter the time of year, we can accommodate participants who are eager to take part in a life-changing program. This commitment to flexibility not only enhances accessibility but also fosters a more inclusive environment for all participants
