NLDP is more than just a conventional leadership program; it is designed to fundamentally change how participants view leadership, themselves, and their communities. The program fosters deep self-awareness, challenges existing beliefs, and encourages participants to develop a vision that aligns with the unique cultural, social, and economic contexts of the North. By emphasizing transformation, the NLDP aims to create leaders who can drive sustainable change in their communities.
