Los Angeles – Iranian Alliances Across Borders’ (IAAB) Summer Leadership Institute, which includes over 150 young Iranian leaders from across the world, is in full swing in Los Angeles, CA. IAAB’s Summer Leadership Institute includes training for university students as well as two concurrent leadership camps, one for high school students and one for middle school students, at Whittier College.

The leadership skills I have learned at Camp Ayandeh have given me the confidence to go back into my own community and become involved as an ambassador to the community and work on programs to help others. -Kayvon Sharif, Camp Ayandeh Camper

With nearly one decade of experience in youth leadership, IAAB brings its critically acclaimed leadership camps to Los Angeles for the first time. IAAB's Summer Leadership Institute, through a positive and inclusive environment, allows Iranian American student leaders to develop leadership skills, foster strong friendships, and gain a deeper understanding of culture and identity as the youth of the Iranian diaspora community.

The IAAB Summer Leadership Institute accomplishes this mission through Camp Ayandeh and Camp Javan and their community building activities, historical and artistic workshops, and critical discussions. Furthermore the curricula of both camps assist campers in responding to the issues they see affecting young people within the Iranian American community:
