Leadership for Environment and Development (LEAD) Pakistan is a non-partisan, non-political, non-profit organization working since 1995 to create and sustain a global network of leaders who are committed to promoting change towards patterns of sustainable development that are economically sound, environmentally responsible and socially equitable.
LEAD came to Pakistan with a unique idea – the Leadership Development Program (LDP) – that is its flagship program. The Rockefeller Foundation funded the LDP till 2002. However, realizing its success and impact, LEAD sustained LDP without external funding. LEAD also exists in other countries with LDP and now it is a vibrant global organization with 14 country and regional programs in Asia, Africa, North & South America and Europe. Over 16 years, LEAD, through LDP, has produced annual cohorts of mid to senior level managers in public, private and civic sectors with commitment and skills to ensure that development is sustainable. The internationally linked LDP has resulted in a Fellows’ Network with over 150 members nationally, linked to more than 2000 members across the world. Its primary purpose is to create a critical mass of well-placed professionals in various sectors who can ensure that economic, social and political development is environmentally sensitive.

Every year, we at LEAD select promising young mid-career professionals from the government, NGOs, corporate sector, industry, media and academia through a competitive process that assesses their potential for leadership and commitment. This training cohort attends national, regional and international training sessions throughout the world in order to develop knowledge and dialogue on environment and sustainable development issues. This year, LEAD Pakistan is pleased to announce the registration for Leadership Development Programme – LDP Cohort 17 (2011-2012) under the theme of “Climate change and water- Managing uncertainties in South Asia”.

The Class of 2011-2012 will take an innovative stance toward water governance focusing on a both integrated and cooperative approach. Keeping in consideration LEAD’s background of working in the area of water governance, coupled with the importance of an overall management framework for ensuring the protection, conservation and sustainable use of water resources; focus of the proposed cohort would be on Water Governance & Management in South Asia. Within this broad area focus will be laid on the governance and management of water resources. Multidisciplinary experts as well as decision makers will debate the interconnectedness between local partnership and conflict resolution mechanisms and trans-boundary cooperation. This leadership development program will feature diverse multi-sectoral representation from nationals of Pakistan, Nepal and Bangladesh and we intend to hold Regional training sessions in Nepal and Bangladesh to observe, learn and witness the challenges that lie ahead of us with reference to water crisis, not only in the form of scarcity, but more of mismanagement, inequitable distribution and lack of access.
