About This Webinar
Join AMCF for a candid “Couch Discussion” introducing the Azm Global Leadership Fellowship (AGL) — a fully funded, two-year leadership development program designed to equip extraordinary young Muslim leaders (ages 22–29) with the capabilities, connections, and community to drive meaningful change.
Hear directly from the fellowship’s founder and key faculty members about why the program was created, the urgent need in the ummah for this kind of structured leadership development, and what the two-year curriculum looks like in practice.
This is an open conversation — come with your questions.
The AGL Fellowship is fully funded. Each fellow receives a $10,000 scholarship grant, plus all travel, accommodation, and program expenses covered across a 2-year journey — including three immersive 2-week in-person workshops (2026, 2027, 2028).
Eligibility: Ages 22–29, self-identifying Muslim, demonstrated leadership, English proficiency (B2+). Learn more and apply at agl.abusulayman.org →
