IWA LeaP Leadership Programme for Young Water Professionals

IWA LeaP is the International Water Association’s Leadership Programme for Young Water Professionals. It is currently underway for the 2024-2025 cohort of participants.

This initiative is a gateway to professional empowerment, allowing participants to realise their potential and expand their horizons. IWA LeaP allows 12 exceptional young water professionals from diverse backgrounds and regions to rise to the leadership challenge. Fuelled by curiosity and courage, they take part in a transformative journey.

Over 12 months, participants forge robust professional networks and enhance their leadership skills to become the leaders that they want to be. It is not just about learning – it is about living the experience. Participants will be challenged, rewarded, and empowered as they elevate their strategic vision and leadership capabilities
