Young Leaders

The IDRA Young Leaders Program was officially launched at the 2009 World Congress in Dubai. The goals of this exciting initiative are to help promote opportunities in the industry, support career advancement, and provide a forum for communication and the exchange of ideas among young professionals and the industry at large. The YLP is open to any IDRA member 35 years of age or under.

To become an IDRA-YLP member, go to the Membership tab on our website – www.idadesal.org, go to the section that says Join/Renew, and choose the appropriate membership category. Please note, for a student membership, you will be required to upload your fulltime student status via a copy of your student ID or a letter from your educational institute. There is a section to join YLP after selecting your membership category.
