The Organization calls on young women and men from Member States and beyond to submit their applications. A specialized jury will select a group of applicants, who will receive intensive training sessions in the fields of peace and security, aiming to qualify them to become ICESCO’s peace ambassadors.

Building on the success of previous editions, which trained 180 young leaders from 68 countries, the 2025 LTIPS Program is anchored in ICESCO’s 360° Peace Approach. This multidisciplinary model aims to equip and mobilize emerging leaders to shape a more peaceful and inclusive future.

LTIPS includes ten specialized training modules that focus on various dimensions of peacebuilding and peace promotion at the strategic, academic and community levels. The modules also provide the participants with the opportunity to interact with inspiring leaders from around the world, and benefit from intensive workshops.

The training will conclude with a competition to honor the best innovative projects submitted by young leaders and provide the necessary financial and technical support for their implementation. LTIPS particularly encourages applications from young women given the pivotal role of women in achieving peace and security.
