University Scholars Leadership Symposium

ports humanitarian relief efforts and development programmes in countries that are poverty-stricken and disaster-prone. Humanitarian Affairs seeks to identify next generation leaders, and then encourage and nurture them to become world-class citizens with a global mindset and an in-depth understanding of the plight of the Global Poor. We provide young people with opportunities to engage in humanitarian service, strengthen their awareness of diverse cultures, and develop a lifelong commitment to helping others by participating in relief efforts to benefit impoverished communities in poverty-stricken countries. Our programmes are not meant to evoke momentary feelings of sympathy and compassion. Rather each activity is designed to be a lesson in teamwork and personal development; each experience serves as a mirror for self-reflection, about life's greater purposes and responsibilities.
