The WCRC is committed to assisting the new generation of church leaders in their development. Besides including young people in all meetings and gatherings, the WCRC utilizes an array of programs to nurture, mentor, support, and challenge young leaders:
- The Global Institute of Theology is an intensive short-term academic programme designed to give theological students from all over the world an opportunity to learn and do theology in an inter-contextual and ecumenical way.
- The Theological Education Scholarship Fund for Women in the South enables women from a wide network of Reformed churches in the Global South to build their capacity for effective partnership in God’s mission.
- The WCRC provides internship opportunities to work with the organization in order to learn about global ecumenism and the issues that are central to the WCRC’s mission.
- The Lombard Prize invites theological students to submit essays that bring together the elements of faith and theology in dialogue with practical issues in the real world that are the central elements of Reformed witness.
