ABOUT US
The Foundation was established in February 2016 by the Polish-American Freedom Foundation.
The main activities of the Foundation include administration of the long-term programs financed by the Polish-American Freedom Foundation: The Lane Kirkland Scholarship Program and “Study Tours to Poland” Program. The Foundation also co-organizes on behalf of the Polish-American Freedom Foundation the Warsaw Euro-Atlantic Summer Academy (WEASA).
All the Programs were transferred to the new Foundation together with the teams who have been creating them for years. A combination of programs with similar profiles and involvement of new persons in their co-creation constitute an opportunity to expand and enrich our activities. We would like to have a broad offer addressed to those who are willing to benefit from experiences of active people from East Europe, the Caucasus region and Central Asia. In collaboration with academic facilities and institutions in the public and NGO sectors, we also hope to provide some new forms of internships and research stays in Poland.
We gather people who believe in the power of change.


OUR MISSION
The mission of the Leaders of Change Foundation is to support elites in the countries of Eastern Europe, the Caucasus and Central Asia – people with active citizenship behavior, who work for the development of their countries.
The Foundation implements its mission by:
