The International Youth Foundation (IYF) is thrilled to announce the election of new Regional Facilitators for its Alumni Network, marking a transformative step toward sustained collaboration and engagement across its global community. This initiative fulfills a long-standing dream of past participants and represents a significant stride in empowering young leaders worldwide.
The newly elected facilitators are Johnson Abayi (Ghana) for Africa and Europe, Bruna Tabajara Brilmann (Brazil) for the Americas, Rime El Harrouni (Morocco) for the Arab States, and Hoodh Ibrahim (Maldives) for Asia and the Pacific. These exceptional leaders were selected through a democratic voting process by the 2024 IYF cohort, reflecting the trust and confidence placed in their abilities to lead.
As regional representatives, the facilitators will play a crucial role in strengthening the network’s community by fostering connections, organizing impactful events, and spearheading initiatives that address regional challenges and opportunities. Their leadership will serve as a bridge between alumni and the broader IYF mission of youth empowerment and innovation.
The IYF extends its heartfelt congratulations to the elected facilitators and acknowledges their dedication to promoting collaboration and transformative change. Their roles are not only about representation but also about driving action that resonates across cultures, regions, and disciplines.
This announcement marks the beginning of a new era for the IYF Alumni Network, emphasizing the importance of collective engagement. Alumni are encouraged to connect with their regional facilitators, share ideas, and actively participate in activities that contribute to the growth and vibrancy of the network. By working together, the community can achieve greater heights and make a lasting impact on global youth development.
The facilitators will serve as key coordinators in their respective regions, ensuring alignment with the IYF’s vision and goals. Their responsibilities will include addressing unique regional needs, organizing collaborative projects, and fostering a sense of unity among alumni. This collaborative approach aims to build a dynamic platform for growth, learning, and the exchange of ideas.
The IYF acknowledges the hard work and dedication of everyone involved in the election process. This initiative highlights the foundation’s commitment to empowering young leaders and providing them with the tools and platforms needed to create meaningful change.
This new chapter is not just about the elected facilitators; it’s about the entire alumni community coming together to amplify their collective impact. The IYF invites all alumni to actively engage with their regional leaders, contribute their insights, and be a part of this transformative journey.
As the network grows under this new leadership, the IYF remains committed to its mission of fostering innovation, collaboration, and empowerment. The future of the IYF Alumni Network is bright, with endless possibilities for meaningful connections and groundbreaking initiatives.
The IYF looks forward to seeing the remarkable progress and achievements this new leadership will inspire, solidifying its place as a global platform for youth empowerment and development.
