Viet’s experience
“The Dual Identity Leadership Program has been one of the best experiences of my life. It has really changed the way I thought about myself, about the community and how to tackle certain problems.”
Viet was a participant of the Dual Identity Leadership Program in 2019. Hear about his experiences in the program.
““The world of work is rapidly changing and equipping young people with the skills, networks and a sense of purpose is critical to developing the next generation of leaders across all sectors and society. The DILP plays a significant role in facilitating the personal and professional development of their participants to best engage and succeed in whatever they wish to pursue.””
