Learning Journey into Leadership
for Young Changemakers
 Make sure you will be available to attend all the plenary Zoom sessions, which will always be on
Mondays and Fridays from 13:00 to 14:00 (UTC), as well as at least 80% of the regional group
sessions (some will be recorded and made available to those who cannot attend).

 The regional group sessions will be held taking into account the different time zones participants
are living in.

 The 40 hours of group work and individual reflection must be done during the dates mentioned
above, but at a time of the day that is convenient for you.

 Participants will be stimulated to continue the exchange with their peers, at their own pace and in
a self-regulated manner, between the taking off and the landing sessions.

 At the end of the learning journey, you will need to dedicate 1 or 2 hours to write a short learning
report and a transfer evaluation.
