apolitical foundation

The Apolitical Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to improving the quality of political leadership worldwide. Here are the key aspects of its mission and work:

The Apolitical Foundation aims to promote "representative political leadership for the 21st century." Its goal is to support politicians who are capable of building democracies that serve citizens and the planet. The organization focuses on strengthening the skills, knowledge, networks, and reform ideas of current and future political leaders[1][4].

• Apolitical Foundation Accelerator: This flagship program is a six-month intensive course that supports political entrepreneurs from around the world. These entrepreneurs are empowered to establish non-partisan political leadership incubators (PLIs) in their countries or regions. The program provides access to global networks, ideas, materials, and approaches necessary for the task[1].
• Political Leadership Entrepreneur Network (PLEN): This global, multi-partisan network includes organizations committed to innovation in political leadership. Members benefit from exclusive access to collective knowledge, shared fundraising opportunities, global recognition, and access to impact metrics[3].

The Apolitical Foundation is working to address the crisis in political leadership characterized by a lack of interest among young people in politics and increasing polarization. It promotes youth engagement in politics and fights against the rise of populism. Through its programs and networks, the organization aims to shape political leadership to be attractive, effective, and sustainable for those who wish to serve their communities through political leadership[1][4].

The team of the Apolitical Foundation consists of experienced experts with extensive backgrounds in political leadership, political education, and civic engagement. Key individuals include Lisa Witter (Co-Founder and CEO), Kimberly McArthur (Chief Operating Officer), Hussam Erhayel (Head of Projects), and Suki Capobianco (Chief Strategy Officer), all of whom have a strong background in political strategy, education, and civic work[2].

The Apolitical Foundation is a central player in the global movement aimed at modernizing and strengthening political leadership for the 21st century. Through its innovative programs and networks, the organization works to create a world where political leaders are once again regarded as one of the most respected roles in society.
