Program of European
Catholic Leaders

APRIL 15th TO JUNE 17th
ON-SITE

1st International Program of European Catholic Leaders

The School of Government and Leadership is honored to collaborate in the design, teaching and financing of this program of the International Academy of Catholic Leaders of Spain.

The idea of this first edition is to identify, train and accompany youth from the Community of Madrid who have a vocation and objective conditions to become political, economic and social leaders. We have a scholarship system set up that can cover up to 100% of the cost of the program. Initially, the focus will be in Madrid, but over time, the experience will be replicated in other provinces of Spain and across Europe.

Features of the first edition of the program 

  • Duration: On Saturday each week for 9 weeks, starting on April 15th and concluding with a graduation on June 17, 2023.
  • Student body: young people from 18 to 35 years old with limited leadership experience in politics, business and civil society.
  • In collaboration with the International Academy of Catholic Leaders.
  • Scholarships of up to 100% of the cost of the program.
  • Content: all the content, as well as the registration form, can be found at the following link: https://liderescatolicos.es/

The program’s specific objectives are:

To train hands, using practical tools for exercising competent, transformative, effective leadership.
The School particularly seeks to train leaders who are closely aligned with the heart and soul of the people, distancing itself from an elitist perspective of leadership.
To be aware of one’s vocation to serve others and to therefore be deeply humble;
To educate the shared conscience of a generation through collaboration and synergy.
