The Leaders of Change Foundation was established in February 2016 and its mission is to support elites in the countries of Eastern Europe, the South Caucasus and Central Asia – people with active citizenship behavior, who work for the development of their countries.
The Foundation implements its mission by:
• Sharing Polish experiences on the system transformation process and Euro-Atlantic integration.
• Promoting democratic, civic and market economy values.
• Promoting Poland as a friendly country interested in establishing collaboration in the region.
• Supporting the development of social diplomacy.
• Supporting the cooperation of Polish and foreign non-governmental organizations, public and private institutions.

The Foundation currently runs 2 main programs: Lane Kirkland Scholarship Program (Kirkland Scholarschips and Kirkland Research Program) and The Study Tours to Poland (study visits and internships for East European studens and specialists.

In September 2018, we started the volunteer project "ACT NOW! - knowledge and professionalism in action. New resources Internet ". As part of the project, each year we hosted one volunteer who is gaining in Poland diverse knowledge and skills related to PR and communication and works to increase information and advisory resources websites of our Foundation.
