Objectives

Through the Future Leaders Network on Early Warning Early Action, the Anticipation Hub commits to connect, inspire and empower future leaders across practice, science and policy, to work collaboratively on enabling early warnings that translate into anticipatory action on the ground.

1. Connect: Create an inclusive, fun and engaging networking space (virtual and in-person) to connect future leaders working in governments, universities, NGOs, Red Cross Red Crescent staff and volunteers, UN agencies and others to exchange expertise and identify partnerships.

2. Inspire: Increase access to a supportive network of individuals that motivate and encourage one another, through the peer-to-peer and inter-generational exchange of experiences and sharing inspiring stories of change.

3. Empower: Showcase initiatives led by early-career professionals, and promote existing opportunities for training, learning and leadership, while creating and advocating for new opportunities in collaboration with Anticipation Hub partners.

The network is hosted by the Anticipation Hub and co-chaired by early-career professionals working in the academic, humanitarian and government sectors.
