Singapore Management University – Youth Ecosperity Dialogue 2023

 

The College of Integrative Studies at Singapore Management University invites you to be part of the Youth Ecosperity Dialogue (YED; June 4-9 2023). Supported by the Temasek Foundation, this year’s theme is “Sources and Sinks: Reimagining Renewables and Waste in Smart Cities.”

Bringing together 100 student environment leaders from universities, polytechnics, junior colleges, and International Baccalaureate schools from Singapore and across Asia, YED 2023 is a platform to tackle key challenges and opportunities in sustainability and regional prosperity in Asia. It connects leaders of tomorrow with global thought and business leaders to engage in a dynamic conversation that moves beyond conventional accounts of prosperity in financial and economic terms and takes us to innovative, inclusive and transboundary possibilities.

YED 2023 includes multidisciplinary discussions, industry visits and hands-on workshops with a sustainability focus – as well as a week-long collaborative YED Challenge!
