Youth United for Community Action

July 1 -2, 2017

Republic Polytechnic (LT - E5)

Singapore Humanitarian Youth Summit 2017

Which Topics Will Be Discussed?

Singapore Red Cross Society (SRCS) recognises the importance of developing the Youth as key agents for social change, economic development, and to further promote youth volunteering as a way for young people to become aware of the benefits of civic engagement.

 

The Red Cross aims to empower through various platforms to participate in sustainable action and volunteerism through humanitarian activities locally and regionally. As such, the Youth Summit is an opportunity for us to celebrate our humanitarian actions and come together to discuss, share and plan ahead on how to do more, do better and reach further. We aim to complete this as part of a global youth network of humanitarian advocator and practitioners.
