Deadline: May 20, 2018
Applications are now open for the 3rd ASEF Young Leaders Summit. The ASEF Young Leaders Summit (ASEFYLS) is the go-to place for young people willing to un-learn, re-learn and learn new concepts, strategies and actions on how to create sustainable impact in society. ASEFYLS3 will take place in conjunction with the 12th ASEM Summit (ASEM12) on 15- 19 October 2018 in Brussels, Belgium.
ASEFYLS3 focuses on Ethical Leadership, the human-centred form of responsible leadership, and aims to dismantle and re-assemble the concept thereof: in the context of self-leadership, team leadership and societal leadership.ASEFYLS3 is for young people who are willing to critically reflect, re-imagine and shape the notion of leadership — starting from themselves, within their communities and on an Asia-Europe scale.
ASEFYLS is an experiential platform for Asian and European students and young professionals that adapts a 360° approach on leadership development. ASEFYLS recognises that leadership takes place across all spectrum in society: at home, in lecture halls, in board rooms, within the community as well as from the streets up to the political arena. Leadership is for those who are determined to take a leap by asking questions, thinking critically, action-planning and collaborating.
