Rotary Youth Leadership Awards

2024 RYLA Programme 28 Apr - 4 May 2024
 
RYLA is a Rotary-organised programme promoting youth leadership and catering to young aspiring leaders aged between 20-28. Since its inception in 1960, thousands of young people around the world have benefited from RYLA. Many have gone on to be outstanding leaders of their families, their businesses and the communities in which they live.
 
Delegates are sponsored either by a local Rotary Club, a local business, the business for whom they work or by private arrangements. We encourage businesses to promote their young leaders with a RYLA experience as the benefits are numerous and embrace all areas of the young person’s life.
 
The varied live-in week at RYLA has proved extraordinarily successful for many years. It provides an environment in which young people can develop their leadership, teamwork and communication skills. Many RYLA graduates have referred to the experience as “the week that changed my life”. Often the friendships made during the RYLA week develop into lifetime networks, benefiting the delegates in all areas of their lives.
 
Administered by Rotarians and facilitated by professional trainers, it targets young people aged 20-28 who may still be at university or already working. They do not need to be in a leadership role at this time.
