Leadership for a winning nation
The approach of the Leadership for a Winning Nation portfolio is underpinned by a belief that young people have the potential to make a major impact on their communities and the country. In order to support young people to have this impact, DGMT supports programmes that promote innovation and problem-solving for the public good, platforms and opportunities that open space for young people to take action, and networks that increase their social capital to drive innovation and reduce their risk tolerance. Leadership development is not simply a process of developing individual young peoples’ skills, but rather requires a combination of personal development, learning-by-doing, and access to real and imminent possibility in order for young people to drive of system-wide community and social innovation.
