We're thrilled to share the highlights from our recent Learning Journey events at The Social Space! Over the past few months, we've had the privilege of hosting two amazing events - one for the National Youth Council Singapore (NYCS) as part of the 2nd China-Singapore Youth Leader Campus on April 13, and another for the Singapore International Foundation (SIF) featuring young social entrepreneurs on May 7. Both events wrapped up with a resounding success, leaving us with unforgettable memories, new connections, and valuable insights.
