EAGLE the Adventurers
“EAGLE the Adventurers” is a one-year advanced leadership development scheme to nurture all-round global youth leaders with innovative mindset, strong ethics and moral values to contribute to social cohesion and world betterment through actual practice.
The EAGLE journey enhanced my sense of purpose, improved my self-regulated learning, and shaped my cognitive and dispositional outlook.

As I came to understand through this journey, leadership is more than just leading a group. Leadership can manifest in various forms.
