About this grant
The program goal is to promote regional cooperation, international integration, and peace and security in Central Eurasia. To this end, the Global Network Foundation organizes an innovative, transformational leadership program targeting two former Soviet regions — Central Asia and the Caucasus — in need of international attention and assistance. Through training workshops, policy seminars, and other capacity-building opportunities, the Global Network Foundation will continue to build the skills of promising leaders from Central Eurasia and raise awareness about these regions among Western leaders. To date, over 200 outstanding young leaders from the Central Eurasia region have benefited from this program.
