ABOUT
OUR THEME:
TRUTH AND DARE
We aspire not just to embolden our community of youth with extraordinary ideas but to expose them to the challenges and harsh realities of our society. This theme not only makes room for encouragement and empowerment but collectively includes the hardship required to unmask an idea.
