CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

TF-NUS LEaRN Young Asian Leaders Initiative (YALI)

Programme Background:

Since the TF-NUS LEaRN programme has been suspended the past few years due to pandemicrelated travel restrictions, Temasek Foundation (TF) and NUS have collaborated on a pilot online programme, the TF-NUS LEaRN Young Asian Leaders Initiative, for this coming semester (Sept – Nov 2021).

Having engaged with the top university leaders in ASEAN, it emerged that a common major concern amongst universities in the region is how to ensure that our students build resilience and are capable of being employed in our new normal. Thus, this programme will centre on teaching our youths how to build resilience as well as the necessary skills and mindsets related to finding and securing employment.

Programme content:

This programme, sponsored by TF and NUS, will be focused on:

I) Developing holistic resilience (physical, mental, social, and emotional), intrapersonal and intercultural skills and understanding

ii) Preparing participants for the future of work in Asia

iii) Interactive discussions for participants to better understand their peers and the ASEAN region

Programme requirements:

  • Participants must join a programme-related Facebook group for networking purposes
  • Participants must submit an experience report of at least 500 words
  • Participants must achieve at least 80% attendance

If they fulfil all the above, participants will be given a certificate of completion.

Participant requirements:

(Programme fees worth SGD550 are waived for participants)

Participants do not have to be from any particular faculty but must be fluent in English and should ensure that they are able to attend all sessions (details featured below) as far as possible.
