East-West Center Asia Pacific Leadership Programme

The East-West Center in Honolulu, Hawaii is organizing the Asia Pacific Leadership Programme (APLP), and is now open for applications until 31st January 2010.

Quoting from the website:-

"The Asia Pacific Leadership Program (APLP) is the center of excellence for leadership education in Asia Pacific and a signature program of the East-West Center. The program links advanced and interdisciplinary analysis of emergent regional issues with experiential leadership learning. 

The APLP empowers future leaders with the knowledge, skills, experiences and supportive community needed to successfully navigate personal and regional change in the 21st century.

Graduates leave the East-West Center with an expanded regional perspective. They are knowledgeable about the societies and issues of the Asia Pacific region and trained to exercise leadership and promote cooperation in a variety of cultural, geographical and institutional environments.

APLP alumni are navigators of change."

For those who get selected, you would get Asia Pacific Leadership Fellowship, worth USD15,000, that would support a good % of your cost, but you would still have some portion of cost that you need to pay for (although you can attempt to get some form of scholarships).
