From 16 to 24 June 2023, the participants were spilt into teams and assigned tasks to complete. The tasks were curated to fulfil the objectives under three key pillars “Leadership In Training”, “Leadership In Action” and “Cultural Immersion”. They aimed to inculcate important values such as discipline, respect, and team spirit in addition to building valuable life skills such as communication, personal mastery and problem solving.
