Come talk and listen to some inspiring and aspiring leaders
We are having youth to present their ideas in following categories
Education – How modern day education in US school system is more
competitive or less competitive as compared to rest of the world. Some
data and statistics around this *and ideas by students on what we can and
cannot do to make US high school education more competitive.
Sport – How safe or unsafe playing contact sports is in High
School and why? I would want speakers to present data that will help them
to make a case on either side. However*, I would also want speakers to
present some ideas that will help our contact sports to become safer
Environment – What will our natural resources (water, air) look
like in next 100 years for generations to come? What are we doing to misuse
or protect these resources? *Ideas for the students on how we can protect
such limited resources, so that life as we know on earth does not continue
to exist.
Leadership - I would like students to bring *ideas that show how
to identify a true leader. What traits a true leader has, and how to foster
in our generations leaders that not only think of making profits but doing
good for the community.
