TWT Leadership School 2026 Application Form

You can read more about our vision for the Leadership School 2026 here.

The deadline for applications has changed to 9pm Thursday 2nd July.

If you are unable to write, you can email us an audio or video file. If neither of these options is possible for you,  please email leadershipschool@theworldtransformed.org

This application form will ask you to select a payment option for your place on the school.

We strongly encourage applicants to seek funding via their organisation or group if they can - even if it is only a partial contribution. The TWT leadership school is about strengthening organisations as much as individuals, and we're committed to prioritising participants from key movement organisations, so they can put what they learn into practice. We advise organisations to encourage the most suitable candidates to apply, using this application form.

If your organisation wants to send some members contact us at leadershipschool@theworldtransformed.org

There are approximately 40 places for participants. We will hold some places for applicants from the location of TWT’s next festival (read about that here). The organising team, with oversight from the TWT Festival Organising Committee, will select the final cohort from those that apply. This may mean that not everyone who applies will get a place. 

The questions for this application form are viewable here, so you can read them all before you apply.
