Applications Open for RDI Youth Leadership Programme 2027–2028

On behalf of Rare Diseases International (RDI), member of IRDiRC Patient Advocates Constituent Committee, we are delighted to announce the opening of the RDI Youth Leadership Programme 2027–2028.

Over 2 years, participants will have the opportunity to develop their leadership skills through mentorship, peer learning, capacity building and practical leadership opportunities, while connecting with other young leaders across the global rare disease community. As part of the Programme, participants will develop their own Leadership Journey, identifying a challenge or opportunity they would like to contribute to and the change they want to help create.

The RDI Youth Leadership Programme is supported by Fondation Ipsen, under the aegis of Fondation de France.
