Young Leaders Programme postponed to June 2021

In light of the COVID-19 pandemic and after careful consideration, the European Commission’s Directorate-General for International Cooperation and Development has decided to postpone the 14th edition of the European Development Days.

The next edition of the European Development Days will take place on 15-16 June 2021 in Brussels.

This will not have an impact on our selection of Young Leaders. The ongoing process will be concluded and the results communicated in the coming weeks.

You were more than 860 to send an application this year and with so many impressive profiles, the Young Leaders Programme looks set to be another incredible cohort.

If you have been preselected, you will soon receive an email to confirm this. We will then get back in touch with you in 2021 to see if you are still available and interested to participate in the Young Leaders Programme for EDD in June 2021.

We reaffirm our commitment to the EU’s Green Deal and will maintain the theme ‘The Green Deal for a Sustainable Future’.

We invite all partners to continue their strong engagement with the event and will work towards ensuring an even greater level of participation in June 2021.

We extend our thanks for your input and support for the event to date. Our main concern is to protect everyone’s health, ensure maximum attendance and allow due preparation for the event. Our thoughts are with all those affected by the crisis.
