Leadership for Change is an education programme from The Economist Educational Foundation, in partnership with Rolex. Co-created by experienced teachers, world-leading journalists and fact-checkers from The Economist newspaper, the six one-hour lessons equip 10- to 16-year-olds with key critical-thinking, creative problem-solving and communication skills. Students will hear from inspiring leaders and apply the skills they develop to address challenges in their own communities, creating a "Project for Change". The curriculum culminates with The Leadership for Change Prize. From September 20th to November 20th 2024, students can enter their "Projects for Change" as part of the competition. Three winning entries will receive funding and mentorship to support the delivery of each winning plan.Discover the Prize
