Imagination Week 2026 kicked off this Monday at the ESSEC APAC campus in Singapore. The event began with a presentation by Stephanie Chok, Executive Director of the Humanitarian Organization for Migration Economics (HOME), who challenged us to rethink how imagination can be a driver of meaningful social change.

Using concrete examples, she showed how creative thinking can help solve overlooked but crucial problems, such as the dangerous transportation of migrant workers, and more broadly how we can rethink systems to improve the lives and dignity of migrant workers in Singapore.
Her presentation was a powerful reminder that imagination is not just about innovation, but also about empathy, responsibility, and impact.
